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.

(Another) Delphi study to define Bobath

Why hasn't Bobath been shitcanned since 2003? It has only been 17 years, THAT tells you how incompetent all of stroke is. And Dunning-Kruger strikes stroke also.

I'm not going to read it but just in case your therapist still uses it even after it was proven not to work since 2003. You'll have to ask your therapist why it is still in use. And ask your stroke hospital why the fuck they are still allowing therapy that doesn't work. People need to be fired, starting with the board of directors. Unless you prefer incompetent hospitals. My best therapist supposedly used it but I really think her competence came from her knowledge of anatomy.

Embracing your incompetence from Seth Godin

Is this what your stroke doctor and hospital are doing? Ask them that specific question.  Do they even know they are incompetent? Incompetent at knowing their incompetence? The Dunning-Kruger effect is on full display with them?

The Dunning-Kruger Effect: Why The Incompetent Don’t Know They’re Incompetent

Apply this to our neurologists whom students already think are full of themselves.
And how do hospitals think about their competence? Probably very well since they give no factual data out like 30-day deaths or 100% full recovery statistics.
For me there are lots of things I don't know thats why we need hundreds of clinical trials to find out the answers on preventing the neuronal cascade of death.
I bet you could get kicked out of your hospital if you suggested such a thing even during the first days of your stroke. I plan of seeing how many doctors I have a screaming match with after my next stroke.

The reason seems to be that poor performers fail to learn from their mistakes.
The proposed solution is that the incompetent should be directly told they are incompetent.
