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.

World Stroke Day: POC4Triage – enabling faster stroke diagnosis and better outcomes

 You mean these stroke medical 'professionals' DON'T ALREADY KNOW AND USE THESE FAST OPTIONS? SO COMPLETELY FUCKING INCOMPETENT?

Do you prefer your doctor, hospital and board of director's incompetence NOT KNOWING? OR NOT DOING?

World Stroke Day: POC4Triage – enabling faster stroke diagnosis and better outcomes

On World Stroke Day, we are shining a light on one of our European research projects focused on innovation in stroke.

Every minute counts when someone has a stroke. Yet too often patients lose precious time being transported to a hospital that cannot deliver the specialist care they need.  

The EU-funded research project POC4Triage aims to change this. It brings together leading European hospitals, researchers and innovators to develop four portable, artificial intelligence-enabled medical devices to support a faster and more accurate diagnosis of stroke and other emergencies. 

One of these devices is the Strokepointer™, developed by two Dutch organisations, Amsterdam AMC and Trianect BV. This device can detect a major stroke in under three minutes, right in the ambulance, by analysing brain activity and using artificial intelligence. Under the POC4Triage project, a new disposable EEG patch placed on the forehead below the hairline, is being developed to make stroke detection even faster, easier and more comfortable for patients. 

Over the next two years, the patch will be tested and validated across several European hospitals and ambulance services, with the long-term ambition of equipping every ambulance in Europe with this technology.  

The POC4Triage project also includes three additional devices:  

  1. A diagnosis and monitoring patch to predict cardiorespiratory diseases 
  2. A functional Near-Infrared Spectroscopy (fNIRS) device to monitor brain blood flow to detect strokes 
  3. A handheld blood test to identify stroke type

All devices will connect through a ‘Device Hospital Connectivity Platform’, ensuring that all vital data reaches hospital teams instantly, so that they can make faster and better informed treatment decisions. 

“Time is brain. The POC4Triage project will give ambulance professionals and doctors improved tools to make faster and more accurate treatment decisions,” says SAFE’s Director General, Arlene Wilkie. “This technology represents a vital step toward improving stroke outcomes across Europe.”

POC4Triage has received funding from the European Union under grant agreement No 101137358.
