http://recoverfromstroke.blogspot.com/2015/07/do-doctors-know.html
Wednesday, July 1, 2015. Medical doctors. MDs. They can be your best friend. If you’ve had a stroke they spent a lot. That advanced stroke recovery. Of their decade-plus of schooling training to save your life and save as much of your brain as they possibly could. When some MDs show up at the Pearly Gates, St. Peter is going to provide velveteen pathways to the VIP room. A few quick points here…. 1 Without a doubt, a rare few MDs do great, great scientific work that promotes medicine. It means you have t...

Saturday, March 28, 2015. Wednesday, March 25, 2015. Brain Comfort Zone = No Gain. The key to recovery is challenge. Heck, the key to learning anything new is challenge. (For stroke survivors movements that need to be re-learned are "new."). So how much challenge is needed? Let's put it this way, one of the treatments used to improve quality and speed of walking that seems very promising is called " speed dependent treadmill training. How challenging is it? Check this out…. But if they can then handle th...

Tuesday, October 14, 2014. 15 million people suffer. 10% of survivors recover completely or almost. 25% recover with minor impairments. 40% experience moderate to severe impairments that require special care. 10% require care in a nursing home or other long-term facility. 15% die shortly after the stroke. Approximately 14% of stroke survivors experience a second stroke in the first year following a stroke. If we concentrate on the people who may need help with recovery we'd include survivors with. Can hu...

Stronger After Stroke Blog (THE STROKE RECOVERY BLOG): July 2015
http://recoverfromstroke.blogspot.com/2015_07_01_archive.html
Saturday, July 25, 2015. There are 3 reasons drop-foot happens:. 1 Stroke is a brain injury. The brain injury no longer provides enough "brain power" to activate the muscle that lift the foot (tibialis anterior). 2 Survivors often have spasticity of the calf muscles. The job of the calf is to cause a "toe down" posture at the ankle. A spastic calf muscle is one that contracts too much, forcing the "toe down" position. 3 Because of both #1 and 2, above, there is often a contracture. Healing takes 6-8 weeks.

Sunday, May 31, 2015. Here is a flowchart used to guide recovery of walking after stroke. How do we learn how to walk in the first place- as infants? Does it involve "treatments" that span from "Task Specific Training" to orthotics? Stroke recovery is hurt by complexity. When rehab options become too complicated the stroke survivor is separated from their own recovery because they don't know what to do. System because they never interface with that. I would like to rewrite the entire algorithm like this.

Tuesday, August 26, 2014. Spasticity I: The "Magic" "Cure" for Spasticity Reduction? Why do I have spasticity? What can I do to get rid of spasticity? When will it go away? Most clinicians provide patients with overly simplified, incomplete and often inaccurate information about what spasticity is, its etiology and its cure. Therapists generally believe that patients don't want detailed explanations. But patients need to understand their spasticity. Why? Spasticity II: The Explanation. Here is the story ...

Stronger After Stroke Blog (THE STROKE RECOVERY BLOG): Recovery depends on neuroplasticity? Yeah...not entirely.
http://recoverfromstroke.blogspot.com/2015/05/recovery-depends-on-neuroplasticity.html
Thursday, May 14, 2015. Recovery depends on neuroplasticity? There's this idea among many clinicians and survivors that when it comes to recovery it's all about neuroplasticity. Certainly, my book as well as many of my articles support this concept. But it's not 100% true. Some of recovery comes from stuff other than neuroplasticity. To explain this, let's nail down two things:. 1 What neuroplasticity is. During the chronic phase neuroplasticity is vitally important to recovery. It is only through fo...
