Describes a problem, OFFERS NO SOLUTION. USELESS.
But then your doctor should have already been doing something about this for 2.75 years already.
Serum neurofilament light - A biomarker of neuroaxonal injury after ischemic stroke October 2018
I'd suggest firing the board of directors since they are obviously not setting the correct goals for your stroke hospital. 100% recovery for all is the only goal in stroke, the status quo is a complete failure and only YOU can change that trajectory.

Abstract:
Study assessed the association of serum neurofilament light chain (NfL)
levels and neuroimaging markers with poststroke cognitive outcome. A
total of 1,028 patients were screened; among them, 144 patients with
acute ischemic stroke (stroke group) and 30 patients without stroke
(control group) were enrolled. Serum NfL levels of samples obtained from
both groups were measured through single molecule array assay.
Neuroimaging markers of neuroaxonal injury, including infarct volume and
white matter hyperintensities (WMH) in the stroke group were quantified
on magnetic resonance images. The primary outcome was the Functional
Independence Measure (FIM) cognitive subscores on discharge. The
prognosis value of the combination of serum NfL levels and imaging
markers for predicting FIM cognitive subscores on discharge was
calculated using the area under curve (AUC) of the receiver operating
characteristic. Serum NfL levels of the stroke group were 9-fold higher
than those of the control group. There was a correlation of serum NfL
levels with infarct volume and functional outcome, including FIM
cognitive subscores and FIM motor subscores on admission, but not with
WMH volume after adjusting for infarct volume. Serum NfL levels on
admission independently predicted poststroke FIM cognitive subscores on
discharge (AUC = 0.672). The predictive(What? No solution? You're that fucking useless?) value for poststroke cognitive
outcome was improved by combining serum NfL levels with infarct and WMH
volume (AUC = 0.760). The combination of serum NfL levels with volume of
infarct and WMH shows an improved predictive value for cognitive
function during acute rehabilitation phase after stroke, providing a
promising panel of biomarkers for prognosis and guidance of treatment.
