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.

Australian Stroke Clinical Registry (AuSCR) Annual Report - 2022

Look how bad this is; NOT EVEN MEASURING 100% RECOVERY!

Are you that blitheringly stupid? 100% recovery is the only goal in stroke, if you don't measure that you'll never get there!

 You also don't measure 'care', you measure RESULTS AND RECOVERY!

“What's measured, improves.” So said management legend and author Peter F. Drucker 

The latest crapola here:

 Australian Stroke Clinical Registry (AuSCR) Annual Report - 2022

The Australian Stroke Clinical Registry (AuSCR) Annual Report is now available – see here. The data presented in this report provide insights into the care provided to 17,184 patients with stroke at 61 participating hospitals in 2022, as well as follow-up information collected three to six months post-discharge.

Although the report shows there have been some improvements over time, care is not provided equally across the country and many aspects of care still need to improve.

  • 1 in 4 patients were not treated in a stroke unit.
  • 12% of patients received clot-busting therapy (thrombolysis).  Only 1 in 3 patients received this treatment within the recommended 60 minutes of arrival to hospital.
  • 1 in 2 patients reported problems with mood, mobility, pain or usual activities after discharge. 

A brief National Snapshot is also available ​here.
