The AHA and ASA suggest that higher quality and faster stroke care with a more precise, data-driven basis can be achieved if hospitals adopt new metrics for comparing stroke centre performance. This will lead the way to improvement in the quality of stroke care and possibly for the development of national standards of stroke care.
One of these metrics is the time frame from admission to assessment for post-stroke rehabilitation and indicates that intensive early physical rehabilitation treatment based on intensive massed repetitive practice improves functional outcome post stroke. These standards will lead the way to establishing a certification program for comprehensive stroke centers http://bit.ly/hTopPH
Massed practice is only good for penumbra recovery and drained blood area recovery. What are the therapies needed for dead brain function recovery? ADL recovery is not good enough. What will you say to typeA baby boomers when they ask you how to recover everything?
