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.

Review of Neuroplasticity for Recovery and Rehabilitation After an Acute Ischemic Stroke

So your goal isn't to figure out how to make neuroplasticity completely repeatable. I'd call that completely fucking useless research then. You're fired along with your mentors and senior researchers!

Abstract

This article will review methods promoting neuroplasticity-inducing therapies after an acute ischemic stroke where the patient suffers brain tissue damage. The optimal time frame for the initiation of therapy will also be discussed. After a stroke, there is brain tissue damage which can result in varying degrees of deficits ranging from visual disturbances, speech alterations, or motor function loss. Due to tissue damage, there are cellular and electrophysiological modifications affecting cells and entire neural network connections with naturally occurring plasticity for a specific time. Therapy that stimulates the brain to enhance motor recovery can have a maximal effect during the period of physiological neural plasticity, a time when neural networks are increasingly fluid and able to form new connections. This can lead to greater motor function recovery. Learning more about the optimal time frame for therapy to promote enhanced neuronal connectivity after an ischemic injury can ensure stroke patients receive the best possible outcomes with maximal attainable recovery. Recent research has shown that the time of initiation of therapy is significant in obtaining maximal recovery.
