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 McLaren Stroke Network features unique 24/7 access to stroke-trained and experienced neurointerventional physician, telehealth consultation capabilities, and established pathways for advanced therapies such as IV tPA clot-busting treatment and thrombectomy when clinically appropriate.

By linking community hospitals with higher-level stroke resources and transfer processes, the network helps ensure patients receive the right level of care(NOT RECOVERY! as quickly as possible, close to home whenever appropriate.

A stroke occurs when blood flow in the brain is interrupted, depriving it of oxygen and requiring immediate medical intervention to reestablish that blood flow.

Strokes are the fifth leading cause of death in the United States—globally, it is the second leading cause of death—and the leading cause of adult disability. There are approximately 800,000 stroke annual in the US, with more than 600,000 of those being first-time strokes.

High blood pressure, high cholesterol, smoking, obesity, and diabetes are all leading risk factors for stroke, and one in every three Americans currently lives with one of these risk factors.
