Congratulations to @MCapogrosso, @rm_defreitas, @shovanbhatia, & our colleagues on this new @NatureMedicine study. A feasibility trial shows cervical spinal cord stimulation can safely improve upper-limb strength, function, & spasticity in people with arm hemiparesis after stroke.
Read the study here: nature.com/articles/s41591-0ā¦
Promising results from a feasibility trial suggests that #epidural #stimulation of the cervical #SpinalCord safely improves upper-limb strength, function and spasticity in seven people with arm #hemiparesis due to #stroke.

Distinct #ICP and #PbtO2 trajectories may exist after #CardiacArrest. Can we distinguish subtypes of pathology that could respond to targeted treatments? @NeurocritCareJ rdcu.be/fmkrv

In this large Canadian trial whole brain CTP did not reach the respecified threshold of 98% sensitivity (94%) and specificity (92%) for brain death. Close but no cigar.

Inspiring 3 days in Ann Arbor at #MaxHarryWeillInstitute for #WolfCreekXVIII. This is a meeting Iāve dreamed of attending for years- to learn from the Resuscitation giants- and to network with phenomenal colleagues. I return home both inspired and appreciative of you all! š«š§

When nothing in the world makes sense, and you're in an alternate reality where all the rules are different and the simple becomes the impossible, look at this humorous version of the MOCA that is used to screen for #dementia. Is that a lemur or a spider monkey?

People who spend their careers writing NIH grants are the literal opposite of grifters.
It is a soul-sucking, brutal process.
The scientists donāt get rich when they get funded. Their salary doesnāt change.
They do it for science. For patients.
You know, to make šŗšøhealthy.
