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.

Identifying emotional contributors to participation post-stroke

The main factor which contributes to participation is the ability to see how recovery is going to occur. With NO 100% recovery protocols you get massive anxiety, apathy, depression and giving up.  Solve the correct problem; 100% recovery protocols! With that your survivors will be too busy doing the reps needed and looking forward to recovery.  If you can't see that as needing to occur, you don't belong in stroke!

Abstract: Study investigated the extent to which emotional factors contribute to participation following stroke. Data were collected from 73 participants with mild-to-moderate chronic stroke. Three participation outcomes were used as dependent variables in three separate regression models: (1) Stroke Impact Scale (SIS) Participation/Role Function, (2) Activity Card Sort (ACS), and (3) Reintegration to Normal Living (RNL). The main independent variables were six emotional factors: general emotion, depression, anxiety, apathy, feeling energetic, and feeling happy. Covariates of stroke severity and social support were included. Model 1 showed that stroke severity and depression were significant contributors to SIS Participation/Role Function. Model 2 indicated that happiness and apathy significantly contributed to ACS total activity retention. Model 3 revealed that anxiety, apathy, stroke severity, and social support were significant contributors to RNL total score. Results suggested that emotional measures of apathy, depression, anxiety, and happiness, but not general emotion, were important contributors to participation post-stroke. These findings suggest that rehabilitation professionals should address individual emotional contributors to facilitate post-stroke participation.
