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.

Sexuality Within Stroke Rehabilitation

A research thesis. Have at it.
Why you should be doing it;

Frequent orgasms may protect against heart attacks

Sexual activity counteracts the suppressive effects of chronic stress on adult hippocampal neurogenesis and recognition memory

The joy of sex: new guidelines for heart attack and stroke victims

Or maybe the bad side.

Ischaemic stroke provoked by sexual intercourse

 

 

 

[PDF] SEXUALITY WITHIN STROKE REHABILITATION

Section A is a broad review of the literature relating to post-stroke sexuality and how this
has been addressed to date within stroke rehabilitation. Initially a contextual overview is
given followed by a review of the literature concerning the impact of a stroke on sexuality.
Following this the literature relating to how sexuality has been approached within stroke
rehabilitation and available interventions are reviewed. The review concludes with
recommendations for future research.
Section B presents a grounded theory of the process by which healthcare professionals
within stroke rehabilitation engage with the sexual concerns of their patients. A conceptual
model is outlined. Ten healthcare professionals (HCPs) working within stroke rehabilitation
were interviewed. The differing ways in which HCPs engage with patients in relation to
sexual issues is presented. A process is suggested by which HCPs personal level of comfort
around sexuality interacts with a series of personal, societal and organisation barriers to
limit the action they choose to take. The findings are presented in relation to existing
evidence and policy, and the implications for clinical interventions for patients and staff are
discussed, alongside directions for future research.
Section C contains the appendices of the first two sections.
