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.

Three ways to improve arm function in the chronic phase after stroke by robotic priming combined with mirror therapy, arm training, and movement-oriented therapy

Good luck mimicking this for your recovery with no protocol provided.

Abstract: Study examined the effects of bilateral robotic priming combined with mirror therapy (R-mirr) vs bilateral robotic priming combined with bilateral arm training (R-bilat), relative to the control approach of bilateral robotic priming combined with movement-oriented training (R-mov)(What's this?) in patients with stroke. In a single-blind randomized controlled trial, 63 outpatients with stroke and mild-to-moderate motor impairment received 6 weeks of clinic-based R-mirr, R-bilat, or R-mov for 90 minutes a day, 3 days a week, plus a transfer package at home for 5 days a week. Outcomes included the Fugl-Meyer Assessment Upper Extremity subscale (FMA-UE), ABILHAND, and Stroke Impact Scale v3.0 scores obtained before, immediately after, and 3 months after treatment as well as lateral pinch strength and accelerometry before and immediately after treatment. The posttest results favored R-mirr over R-bilat and R-mov on the FMA-UE score. Follow-up analysis revealed that significant improvement in FMA-UE score was retained at the 3-month follow-up in the R-mirr over R-bilat or R-mov. Significant improvements were not observed in the R-mirr over R-bilat and R-mov on other outcomes. Between-group differences were only detected for the primary outcome, FMA-UE. R-mirr was more effective at enhancing upper-limb motor improvement, and the effect has the potential to be maintained at 3 months of follow-up.
