Deans' stroke musings: New three-year programme to help up to 2,000 stroke survivors, caregivers

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.

New three-year programme to help up to 2,000 stroke survivors, caregivers - Singapore

So instead of solving the primary problem of 100% recovery they are trying to solve the secondary problems. If we had ANY BRAINS AT ALL IN STROKE LEADERSHIP 100% recovery would be solved. It's not that hard, plenty of research points the way forward and it's not the rehab portion.

With all the research out there to stop the 5 causes of the neuronal cascade of death in the first week thus saving millions to billions of neurons. We can and should work on 100% recovery. If we had any leadership at all in stroke we would create a strategy to solve stroke to 100% recovery! If you don't believe it can be done; GET THE HELL OUT OF STROKE!

Patients who have suffered a mild to moderate stroke will be getting more help to reintegrate into the community. Up to 2,000 patients and their caregivers will benefit from a new programme by the National Neuroscience Institute (NNI) that will be rolled out next year. The Temasek Foundation is putting in $1.4 million to fund it for three years. Stroke survivors will go through a four-module empowerment course to build their confidence. The programme will be introduced at the Singapore General Hospital and Tan Tock Seng Hospital. CNA spoke to Assoc Prof Deidre Anne de Silva, senior consultant of neurology at the NNI, and stroke survivor Reema Bhatti.
