Deans' stroke musings: What is the next frontier of stroke care?

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.

What is the next frontier of stroke care?

The only goal in stroke is 100% recovery, anyone discussing 'care' needs to be drummed out of stroke for EXTREME INCOMPETECY! SURVIVORS WANT RECOVERY! I've never heard a survivor ask for 'care'; I'd suggest you talk to survivors sometime; they all want recovery, and you are failing survivors!

What is the next frontier of stroke care?

The Dayton Daily News spoke with the University of Cincinnati's Joseph Broderick to discuss a recent article he published in the journal Stroke examining the past, present and future of stroke care.

In 1975, when Broderick was a sophomore undergraduate, there were zero scientifically approved treatments for acute stroke.

Over his more than 40 years as a researcher and clinician, Broderick has actively contributed to major improvements in stroke care(NOT RECOVERY!), occupying a front row seat to seismic innovations: the clinical trials that proved tPA as the first effective treatment for acute ischemic stroke in the 1990s, the seminal trials leading to mechanical removal of clots within the artery in the 2000s and most recently the FASTEST trial today testing what could be the first treatment to slow bleeding for spontaneous acute intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH).

In Broderick’s vision of the future, stroke diagnosis will often begin before the patient ever reaches the hospital. Wearable technology and at-home monitoring could alert emergency responders to stroke symptoms in real time, allowing treatment to start en route.

“But no matter how advanced we get, time will always be the single most important factor for success," Broderick, MD, professor in the University of Cincinnati’s College of Medicine, senior adviser at the UC Gardner Neuroscience Institute and director of the NIH StrokeNet National Coordinating Center told the Dayton Daily News.

“The next century will be about advances in recovery and rehabilitation after stroke and addressing current global disparities in stroke incidence, outcomes and access to proven therapies,” Broderick continued. “We’ve made a significant dent in the burden of stroke over the past 50 years,” he said. “And I think the best is yet to come.”(With this failure mindset of 'care', THE FUTURE OF STROKE IS BLEAKER THAN HELL!)
