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.

Essential medical information for stroke patients undergoing interhospital transfer: A Delphi study

You can see how fucking bad this is: NOTHING ON AN OBJECTIVE DAMAGE DIAGNOSIS.  I guess such diagnosis is not essential, they don't need to know anything objective about your damage to treat you in the new hospital. Guessing is good enough for them, maybe not for you, but obviously you don't count.

Abstract: Study used the Delphi method to determine what medical information is essential for physicians receiving stroke patients undergoing interhospital transfer. An expert panel of 31 physiatrists participated in this study. The 32 preliminary items of the transferred medical information were listed by a physiatrist for the first round of the Delphi method, and degree of necessity for these 32 items was evaluated using a 3-point scale (very necessary, necessary, and not necessary). "Very necessary" and "necessary" were considered as "agreed to its necessity." According to the Delphi method, a satisfactory level of consensus can be achieved with the agreement of significant majority (80 percent or above) in the expert panel. Based on the experts' feedback, some items were added to the preliminary items. After the second round of the Delphi method, the items confirmed to be necessary information during interhospital transfer were: motor and sensory evoked potentials, Barthel Index, Mini-Mental State Examination/Global Deterioration Scale, Motor-Free Visual Perception Test, Manual Function Test, Purdue Pegboard Test, hand grip power, monofilament, 2-point discrimination test, Manual Muscle Test, Nottingham Scale, modified Brunnstrom Classification, functional ambulation category, Glasgow Coma Scale, language function test, imaging study, videofluoroscopic swallowing study, rehabilitation goal(This should automatically be assumed to be 100% recovery! You can't let your doctor or therapists set your goals), previous medical history, comorbidity, and medication information. A total of 38 items were finally confirmed as necessary information items during interhospital transfer. If the necessary items are presented together at once during interhospital transfer, physicians who receive new stroke patients can evaluate patients' medical information more easily and completely.
