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.

Experiences of F@ce – a team-based, person-centred intervention supported by information and communication technology for rehabilitation after a stroke

 No clue what this is. They don't talk about full recovery so it must be a failure at that!

Experiences of F@ce – a team-based, person-centred intervention supported by information and communication technology for rehabilitation after a stroke

Purpose

The study aimed to explore the experiences of participation in F@ce, a team-based, person-centred intervention program supported by information and communication technology, among persons with stroke, their significant others, and the team members.

Methods

The clients (n = 10) and their significant others (n = 6) were interviewed individually once and the rehabilitation team members (n = 6) were interviewed once in focus groups at the end of the intervention. The transcribed interviews were analysed using content analysis.

Results

The findings indicate that the F@ce intervention program was perceived as relevant, effective, and satisfying(Impossible to be satisfying if not fully recovered, unless you are being bamboozled by the tyranny of low expectations that your stroke medical 'professionals' are feeding you!) by clients, significant others, and rehabilitation team members, helping to reduce restrictions on participation in daily activities and to improve recovery during post-stroke rehabilitation. Five themes are presented: setting activity-based goals, enabling daily activities and motivation through SMS reminders: integrating F@ce into daily life, managing digital technology, collaboration and communication with the team, and involvement of significant others.

Conclusions

The study highlights the strengths of this intervention program, noting that it is evidence-based and activity-based, tailored in a person-centred manner to align with clients’ needs, priorities, and preferences in daily life.

Implications for rehabilitation

  • Information and communication technology-based rehabilitation interventions can enhance post-stroke recovery and support participation in daily life.

  • Rehabilitation professionals should provide tailored support to ensure that interventions meet individual needs and preferences.

  • Engaging significant others in the rehabilitation process can enhance client motivation and long-term outcomes.

  • A collaborative, person-centred approach should be prioritised to improve recovery and overall satisfaction.
