Stroke is the main cause of death and disability among Chinese, and neurorestoration is an effective therapeutic strategy for patients with stroke. In recent years, many achievements have been made in stroke neurorestoration, but viewpoints for managing stroke vary per discipline. In order to promote standardization of diagnosis and treatment for stroke neurorestoration, the Chinese Association of Neurorestoratology (CANR; Preparatory) and China Committee of International Association of Neurorestoratology (IANR-China Committee) organized professional experts in the field to integrate fragmented neurorestorative methods and establish clinical diagnostic and therapeutic guidelines for stroke neurorestoration. This guideline includes the diagnosis and staging of stroke and therapeutic recommendations for neurorestoration at different stages of stroke in order to improve survival and quality of life of stroke patients.

Abstract

Stroke is the main cause of death and disability among Chinese, and neurorestoration is an effective therapeutic strategy for patients with stroke. In recent years, many achievements have been made in stroke neurorestoration, but viewpoints for managing stroke vary per discipline. In order to promote standardization of diagnosis and treatment for stroke neurorestoration, the Chinese Association of Neurorestoratology (CANR; Preparatory) and China Committee of International Association of Neurorestoratology (IANR-China Committee) organized professional experts in the field to integrate fragmented neurorestorative methods and establish clinical diagnostic and therapeutic guidelines for stroke neurorestoration. This guideline includes the diagnosis and staging of stroke and therapeutic recommendations for neurorestoration at different stages of stroke in order to improve survival and quality of life of stroke patients.
