Deans' stroke musings: SAFE(Stroke Alliance for Europe)members calls for EU to implement CVD health plan

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.

SAFE(Stroke Alliance for Europe)members calls for EU to implement CVD health plan

You'll notice that it only mentions access and 'care'; NOT RESULTS OR RECOVERY! So completely useless! I'd fire everybody involved in this for incompetence!

SAFE members calls for EU to implement CVD health plan

Last week saw five SAFE members travel to Strasbourg to join the European Alliance for Cardiovascular Health (EACH) and European Stroke Organisation (ESO) to come together to jointly advocate for population-wide access to cardiovascular risk assessments and care pathways that focuses on individual patients needs and goals. SAFE and ESO have committed to ensure that any EU CVH plan will also include the principles of the Stroke Action Plan for Europe.

The Stroke Action Plan for Europe (SAP-E) is a pan-European initiative that was outlined by the European Stroke Organisation (ESO) and the Stroke Alliance for Europe (SAFE).

It is the largest stroke project ever undertaken in Europe and sets targets to improve stroke care across the continent run until 2030.

The SAP-E is a truly collaborative document resulting from more than a year of dedicated efforts from ESO, SAFE and countless stakeholders. The SAP-E addresses the entire chain of care from primary prevention through to life after stroke. The aim of the SAP-E is to set a roadmap and define goals for the treatment of stroke in Europe through 2030. The plan was formally launched in the EU Parliament on 23 May 2018.

The implementation of the SAP-E is guided by a dedicated Steering Committee and a coalition of over 90 National Coordinators.

By 2030, SAP-E aims to

Reduce the absolute number of strokes in Europe by 10%.
Treat 90% of all patients with stroke in Europe in a stroke unit as the first level of care.
Have national plans for stroke encompassing the entire chain of care.
Fully implement national strategies for multi-sectorial public health interventions promoting and facilitating a healthy life-style, and reducing environmental (including air pollution), socio-economical and educational factors that increase the risk of stroke.
