Deans' stroke musings: Different strokes for different folks: Different outcomes are valued by different stakeholders

Changing stroke rehab and research worldwide now.Time is Brain! trillions and trillions of neurons that DIE each day because there are NO effective hyperacute therapies besides tPA(only 12% effective). I have 523 posts on hyperacute therapy, enough for researchers to spend decades proving them out. These are my personal ideas and blog on stroke rehabilitation and stroke research. Do not attempt any of these without checking with your medical provider. Unless you join me in agitating, when you need these therapies they won't be there.

What this blog is for:

My blog is not to help survivors recover, it is to have the 10 million yearly stroke survivors light fires underneath their doctors, stroke hospitals and stroke researchers to get stroke solved. 100% recovery. The stroke medical world is completely failing at that goal, they don't even have it as a goal. Shortly after getting out of the hospital and getting NO information on the process or protocols of stroke rehabilitation and recovery I started searching on the internet and found that no other survivor received useful information. This is an attempt to cover all stroke rehabilitation information that should be readily available to survivors so they can talk with informed knowledge to their medical staff. It lays out what needs to be done to get stroke survivors closer to 100% recovery. It's quite disgusting that this information is not available from every stroke association and doctors group.

Different strokes for different folks: Different outcomes are valued by different stakeholders

The only outcome measurement that is valid is what survivors want. 100% recovery. If you don't understand that, GET THE HELL OUT OF STROKE! Quit trying to justify your failures.

Abstract:

This paper updates and extends an editorial written by the first author on “Technology Adoption, Acceptance, Satisfaction and Benefit: Integrating Various Assistive Technology Outcomes.” Additional stakeholders have been added as well as evidence-based outcomes measures applicable to each. It is critical for outcomes measurement developers, researchers, policy makers, people with disabilities, practitioners, funders, and service program administrators and managers to understand that each of their perspectives on outcomes is critical, but each of these unique perspectives is only one perspective of many. These many perspectives become even more important to consider when cultures, financial models, and service delivery programs, are unique as is the case across low- and middle-income countries where many of the outcomes systems were not originally developed. This paper was presented at the 2020 annual conference of Rehabilitative Engineering and Assistive Technology Society of North America (RESNA).
Descriptor Terms: ASSISTIVE TECHNOLOGY, INTERNATIONAL REHABILITATION, MEASUREMENTS, OUTCOMES, SERVICE UTILIZATION.
