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.

The Doctor Behind Turkey's Robotic Rehab Revolution: Dr. Mustafa Corum

 Will your competent? doctor and hospital learn and implement anything from his success? Oh no, they don't know about it and plan nothing. Perfect example of extreme incompetence of everyone involved!

The Doctor Behind Turkey's Robotic Rehab Revolution: Dr. Mustafa Corum

Doc. Dr. Mustafa Corum, a groundbreaking figure in Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation, has emerged as one of the leading pioneers of robot-assisted rehabilitation in Turkey and on the international stage.
Combining advanced technology with traditional therapeutic methods--particularly in the treatment of stroke, traumatic brain injury, and spinal cord damage--Dr. Corum has become a widely recognized name in the field.

A New Approach to Robotic Rehabilitation

Dr. Corum's technology-driven approach goes far beyond conventional physiotherapy techniques. His practice incorporates state-of-the-art robotic systems and virtual-reality-supported rehabilitation devices.

The systems featured in his clinic include:
Lokomat Pro - robotic gait training system
C-Mill VR Plus - virtual-reality-based treadmill and balance platform
Armeo Spring - arm and upper-limb robotic therapy device
Amadeo - robotic finger therapy system
Erigo Pro - robotic tilt-table and early-mobilization platform

These technologies provide intensive, personalized therapy programs that aid in regaining gait, mobility, and upper-limb functions following stroke. Dr. Corum emphasizes three key principles in his method: early intervention, high-intensity therapy, and individualized programming.

Patient Stories and Remarkable Success

The patient cases treated in Dr. Corum's clinic demonstrate the tangible outcomes of this innovative approach. One notable example includes a stroke patient who traveled from Germany to Turkey. The patient arrived with severe complications, including infection and difficulty swallowing. Following a structured robotic rehabilitation program, they progressed to the point of walking indoors with support.

Dr. Corum's social media accounts also showcase real-time demonstrations of robotic therapy, offering a closer look at how these devices function during treatment sessions.

Revolutionary Impact and Turkey's Role

Dr. Corum stands at the forefront of Turkey's technological transformation in physical rehabilitation. By making robotic systems more accessible and expanding the scope of neurorehabilitation practices, he has offered renewed hope to thousands of neurological patients.

Among the key benefits of robotic rehabilitation are:
- faster recovery of motor functions,
- enhanced neuroplasticity through high-repetition movements,
- safer and more controlled therapy environments.

According to Dr. Corum, when applied at the right time and intensity, robot-assisted therapy can produce significantly better outcomes than traditional rehabilitation alone.

A Vision Beyond Turkey

Dr. Corum's ambitions extend far beyond national borders. His clinic welcomes international patients and offers comprehensive inpatient robotic rehabilitation programs operated by a multidisciplinary team of physicians, physiotherapists, occupational therapists, and speech-language pathologists.

He also contributes to the scientific community through academic publications and conference presentations. One of his recent studies focuses on a pilot randomized trial examining the effects of robot-assisted upper-extremity training.
