Deans' stroke musings: Siemens, World Stroke Organization ink 2-year stroke care deal

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.

Siemens, World Stroke Organization ink 2-year stroke care deal

NO, NO, NO! This is how useless the WSO is; 'care' NOT RECOVERY OR RESULTS! They need to be taken over by survivors, we'll get shit done!

Siemens, World Stroke Organization ink 2-year stroke care deal

Siemens Healthineers and the World Stroke Organization have inked a two-year partnership to improve global access to stroke care.

The collaboration will focus on low- and middle-income countries and will allow Siemens and the World Stroke Organization to offer education and training programs that spotlight stroke as a global healthcare issue.

Stroke is the second-leading cause of death and the third-leading cause of disability in adults. Its incidence is rising in low- and middle-income countries, Siemens said, and the global financial cost of stroke is expected to reach $1.6 trillion by 2050. Low- and middle-income countries will experience 87% of the disease burden.

Siemens and the World Stroke Organization will offer hands-on education workshops and training programs aimed at strengthening clinical capacity and driving access to mechanical thrombectomy, they said.

"Delivery of mechanical thrombectomy requires a complex range of actions across the healthcare system, from raising public awareness of stroke symptoms to ensuring timely hospital presentation, to bringing acute healthcare systems up to levels that enable fast diagnosis and clinical decision-making," according to Siemens.
