Innovations in Stroke Recovery and Rehabilitation

They suggest nothing about recovery, just biomarkers which are just a way to predict failure to recover. I'd say this is totally fucking useless.

We may as well go back to blood letting as a stroke prescription as discussed in the 1843 book, 'An Essay On The Nature and Treatment of Apoplexy'. I see no innovation, just rehashed crapola guidelines.

Ask your doctor what is the basis for their treatment of your stroke disabilities and why they moved away from bloodletting.  My doctor knew nothing and did nothing as proven by the writing of three E.T.(Evaluate and treat) prescriptions.

Despite improvements in acute stroke management, many stroke survivors remain with substantial disability. Efforts to more effectively harness the brain’s plasticity and capacity for recovery have been gradually providing a more robust array of evidence to help guide practitioners. At the same time, new treatments, such as cryoneurolysis, are being incorporated into the management of long-term sequelae of stroke. In this special issue focusing on stroke rehabilitation, contributors review our current understanding of mechanisms involved in motor recovery and motor learning following stroke. Techniques to impact and augment motor control and motor learning are discussed. Biomarkers of functional outcomes following stroke are presented with regards to prognostication of both upper and lower limb recovery, with the expectation that these predictive models will ultimately be used to guide individualized treatment.
