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.

HCMUT(Ho Chi Minh City University of Technology) introduces robotic gloves for stroke patients

 Your hospital can compare this to all these other gloves.

With my finger spasticity I could never get on these soft material  gloves. I bet they haven't tried them  on that type of patient.

HCMUT(Ho Chi Minh City University of Technology) introduces robotic gloves for stroke patients

SGGP

A group of students from Ho Chi Minh City University of Technology (HCMUT) has successfully invented robotic gloves to help patients recovering from strokes to hold objects and restore hand movements. This meaningful product aims at supporting arm movements of stroke patients who are rehabilitating at home.

The fingers of robotic gloves are made from flexible and soft materials (liquid rubber solutions) in order to grasp objects easily without deforming them. Their movement mechanism is according to the pneumatic principle.

The elbow of these gloves are attached with sensors that can read signals from the hand muscles and then transmit them to the soft fingers via wires. Receiving these signals, the gloves have their fingers automatically inflated with air to bend and help users’ fingers move as well so that they can hold objects.

The product has been recognized and published on IEEE Xplore journal of the International Electrical Engineers Association.
