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.

Beyond steps per day: Other measures of real-world walking after stroke related to cardiovascular risk

It is YOUR DOCTOR'S RESPONSIBILITY to get you recovered enough to do any amount of walking.

Abstract: Study determined which real-world walking activity measures most strongly associated with systolic blood pressure (SBP), a measure of cardiovascular risk, in people with stroke and investigated whether these measures are associated with SBP after accounting for laboratory-based measures of walking capacity. A total of 276 individuals with chronic stroke wore an activity monitor for at least 3 days. Measures of activity volume, activity frequency, activity intensity, and sedentary behavior were calculated. Best subset selection and lasso regression were used to determine which activity measures were most strongly associated with SBP. Sequential linear regression was used to determine if these activity measures were associated with SBP after accounting for walking capacity (6-Minute Walk Test). Average bout cadence (i.e., the average steps per minute across all bouts of walking) and the number of long (≥ 30 minutes) sedentary bouts were most strongly associated with SBP. After accounting for covariates and walking capacity, these activity measures were significantly associated with SBP. Higher SBP was associated with older age, male gender, black race, and a slower average bout cadence. Findings suggest that measures of activity intensity and sedentary behavior may be superior to commonly used measures, such as steps per day, when the outcome of interest is cardiovascular risk. The relationship between walking activity and cardiovascular risk cannot be inferred through laboratory-based assessments of walking capacity.
