Empowering the Mind to Heal the Brain for Stroke | Dr. Eric C. Leuthardt | TEDxGatewayArch

- The capability to "decode the brain" now makes thought-controlled machines a reality. Even more fundamentally theses brain computer interfaces empower the mind to now heal the physical substance of the brain after stroke. Our laboratory has created brain computer interfaces that enable a person with a chronically paralyzed had to recover function by using brain signals from the uninjured side of their brain. With continued practice, while the patient's machine-empowered thoughts enable them to move their paralyzed hand, something extraordinary happens -- the patients begin to recover function.
Not one for idle time, Dr. Leuthardt is an Associate Professor of Neurological Surgery and Biomedical Engineering at Washington University School of Medicine, where he specializes in brain-mapping for patients with brain tumors and epilepsy; Director of Washington University’s Center for Innovation in Neuroscience and Technology, a collaborative collective for developing new technologies to improve neurosurgery; and a published author of the hit psychological thriller RedDevil_4.

Im a stroke survivor and ill be the best version of myself if you're reading this pls pray for me
I had a severe brain injury, right side of my body was totally paralyzed! Couldn’t talk for a while, right side of my body was totally NUMB!💯
And now 6,5 years later I CAN STILL FEEL recovery process!
And I am still working hard on it!
Wish everyone who had a stroke or brain injury to recover!💯🙏🏼
This is encouraging. I had a massive stroke in 2021, cant eat talk walk or use my left arm and hand. Was told after 6 months of intensive rehabilitation that I wpuld have these lifelong disabilities but I refuse to accrpt hat. I can now eat, talk and compensatorily walk with a cane. I still do daily exercise at home and still expect to get better until I completely recover. Please pray for me too if you're reading his.
AMAZING INFORMATION!!! The power of intention is both scientific and has power we are too often taught not to believe in. My goid friend was in a coma for several months then appeared near-noncommunicative. Turns out she had aphasia, apraxia, and loss of ability in one-side. She had very little access to medical physical therapy. Bit she had an amazingly strong will and with a little encouragement she regained most of her old functionality back and new functionality as well -- walking, talking very well, driving, forming tons of friends and a wonderful boyfriend, even becoming an Uber driver!!! Honestly she did it almost entirely ON HER OWN! Much of the healing was after 6 months and even after years!!!it is so very important to encourage people because there is so much power in their intention and they are either working for or against themselves. Sharing this with a very recent stroke survivor for his recovery. God bless you!!!❤
I just had a stroke December 13th 2021 finally out the hospital, thank God my fiance saw me having the stroke she knew right away rushed me to the hospital they gave me a blood thinner asap to my bloodclot brain, the first 3 days I couldn't use my left side I was very emotional. 3rd day boom I could feel my left! I know I have a long journey ahead of me. Thank God I'm recovering well and I am praying for all you out there who had a stroke or have family member or friends. God please 🙏 heal them
Please check out a video called Reverse Stroke by 60 minutes Australia. It aired 7 years ago and what the doctor did in Florida might be of interest to you. May God bless you on your journey.
My family is subject to have cerebral aneurysms combined with strokes. Our is generational. I rebuke the curse but we never know how much time we will have.
I had my stroke 2013. Couldn't lift my arm, slurred speech, unbalanced, problem holding anything. Now I have all those functions and have been cleared to pilot a private plane, Drive a bus, Taxi, Truck. I ride my bike most days and go to the Gym daily followed by Aqua Aerobics and spa. During lockdown I ride my bike and eat healthy.
How long you took for that

@@oceans2533 any way of finding out how your rehabilitation was like?
Oh my gosh, Irecent need to learn how to do this. I have had two massive strokes and a seizure and I am praying that I can rewire my brain to teach my body to work again. After my seizure a few months ago they did a lumbar puncture and it caused me a small brain bleed on the left side of my brain. Now I have deficits from the damage on both sides of my body, post stroke weaknesses and stroke major bladder incontinence with severe urgency, prior to the seizure, it was bowl inconvenience and I didn't want to leave the house. The weaknesses now are on my entire left side especially my leg and can't hold anything in my left hand or it falls to the ground. My right shoulder has a previous rotator cuff tear that has not been repaired or therapy. After my seizure I was transported to a neuro rehab hospital and even though it was not the issue, I requested exercises to help. I am off balance always and fall sometimes. I wish I had insurance that would help me with daily therapy and rehab. I need to learn to walk again. I can't walk forward. If I bend down and try to reach something with a reacher tool, then down I go to the floor. Usually only a slow drop down, but I can't get myself back up. No strength in my legs or body. I have done intense physical therapy and speech therapy I was released from. I can't speak loud enough for anyone to hear me and people get very upset about it. They don't realize or understand how it makes me feel . Some people think that once you have a stroke you should be able to do everything that you did before. It is very hurtful. I do ny best to keep the dishes done and loased and then unloaded when it is done and put them away. After standing up for a while, my legs freeze up and I have to be very careful and get my front Wheeled walker to get back to the kitchen table or my recliner in the family room. Lifesucks, but I am praying and looking forward to getting physically and mentally better. My eyes are getting bad and I often have trouble seeing things around me. I will never give up working on getting better. I can't remember things from one minute to another or where I just sat something down. I can't dress myself worth a darn i can't tie my shoes and struggle getting my shoes on and off. I need to get stronger so I can lift things again and clean my house. Just had our bathtub remodeled for about 15 grand. Ni doors and i don't even attempt to shower if n o one is here, in cse I fall. We are completely in a toxic situation with all the medical bills. I have been in the hospital five times this year. My husband has stage IV esophageal cancer and we are financially at the end of the grond. Nothing to sell and we barely have enough money to pay our bills every month. We never fought before, but now the thought of going to the grocery store cauaes extreme problems. My husband has a fit every time. He has to drive us everywhere and bring everything in the house i can barely walk and can't carry much. It throws me even more off balance. I put as much of the stuff away as I can. Sadly, my husband has no do so much for us and he takes care of me and I take the best care of him that I can. This is definitely not how either one of us thought we would ever follow in our senior years. I wish we had a smaller house, but this one is very small. I can't get the walker through either bathroom because they are so narrow. I am praying for everyone
My stroke was 09.2021. Very slowly getting back. Great video. Thank you
I had a massive debilitating stroke in 2021. Even after 2 years of intensive physical rehabilitation, I was left with severe dedicits and was told that those disabilities are lifelong. I refuse to remain broken, so no mattr how difficult I continue to exercise on my own. My entire left side has no function but I could already eat properly and talk. It is very very difficult but I have faith that I will completely recover. Please pray for me. I do get discouraged. But stillfighting
My father just had a stroke. According to his Neuro he wouldn’t “wake up because of his age (74, diabetic on dialysis) and that I should start looking at how we wanted to proceed otherwise him! Now mind you, his surgery for the clot was third and she’s telling me this on Friday. On Friday, she comes back and tells me the same thing, now I’m furious because by that evening, my dad completely recognizes my voice and my sibling along with all his brothers and sisters. He squeezes our hand when we ask if he knows who we are. Opens his eyes on command and can touch the ball of his fingers slowly. He also moved his legs. He had to have a trachea put in and a feeding tube, which his body accepted. He is having a hard time weaning of the vent, but I think to myself it’s only been a week... it takes time. Yesterday evening, the PA comes in and suggests that we transfer him to hospice and place him on a morphine drip!! Is she f*cken kidding me!! She wants me to kill my father, that’s the fourth time this moron says that to me!! My daddy is a fighter, I know he can get through this with all our support! This video gives me hope and the strength to help him as much as I can. Thank you
How's your dad doing
Lucky to have a daughter who will protect him. Wish him the best.
I would love to know how your fathers doing now ?!
TheChoralist thank you for asking. Unfortunately my father lost his battle last Aug.
Busola Olagunju thank you!
Very informative video. Thank you for sharing Rick's amazing story. My husband had a massive stroke. The struggle is real. But we will not quit.
Fully view video. God bless. 😭 🙏
I love this story I had a stroke also on my left side so I know exactly how it feels good job picking up the marbles repetition in faith brains healing
I had an AVM in 2015, affected my vision, 2018 at the age of 26 a stroke the same as the guy in the video but mine was in the right side of brain so my left hand was paralyzed. I can confess it's terrible, if you have hands that can move, feet that allows you to carry your weight and walk, you have MUCH to be grateful for. I was a top athlete, great dancer, great gamer on the PC, played instruments and yet it all was away because of a small clot. Its been a year since my stroke and I am still pushing for recovery, hand and foot function still very weak since fine motor skills is the hardest to get back. Its a nightmare. The Dr is right. You don't know whats its like. But I can confess that recovering comes with really hard work, its a challenge greater than anything else but keep going. Whatever your situation, you can pull through. Use your mind, study it, learn it, stop complaining, some us are going through much deeper waters. Own your mind, its yours! Stand up, I don't care about what reasons you might have. Stand up. For myself, I expect to make a full recovery and show the world that impossible is nothing. Believe in yourself. In 6 months, I will run again, type again, tie my shoelaces, button my shirt, see again... that is a heaven im grinding hard for everyday and it WILL become a REALITY!!!
inspiring, thanks for sharing your story. keep it up, you can definitely do it!
@@Chiquepeace thank you :)
You will do it, you are and so you will
how is recovery now?
I love what you said and I believe in you I know God‘s going to bring you through just like he’s bringing my daughter through. Keep the faith and keep your eyes on the prize. You’re going to recover fully I feel it through your voice.👍🏾🕺🏾🧎♀️
Ischemic stroke 2017 and i have been recovering little by little. Dedication of movements and repetition. Praise the Lord for guiding me through it all.
Frank Cruz keep going! The brain is neuroplastic and it WILL rewire!!
Please do water fasting with proper guide
GOD Is Great
My cousin brother is suffering from brain dead please. Pray for him for his speedy recovery 🙏 🙏🙏🙏 .as prayer can only help him he was declared as dead but now they came to know on Saturday he is brain dead and not physically dead he is living on ventilator
This video help me a lot. I absolutely believe that our brain is a muscle. We all can do whatever we want and your mind, don't lose it.
My husband just had a stroke after a failed tracheotomy. He is in a vegetative state right now, but he always told me, "where there's hope, there's life." A LOT of friends and family members are wanting me to take him off of life support so that they can just start the grieving process. I know that that is not what he would want. He has had several parts of his brain damaged, but I am holding out hope. Right now, I would be happy if he could just lip the name of one of our children.
did he pull threw?
How is he doing?
How is he doing now?
Never give up. The doctors put pressure on me to unplug him and I refused. he can now talk, eat, swallow, he's off life support, trech tube removed. The physical side is taking longer. But never give up. I watch lots of videos on youtube that show positive stories for inspiration and I joined a stroke survivor group for support which has helped alot.
@@marlenemaschke3763 That's great news, I was vegetative after my stroke for a few months. They told my family to consider letting me go. I woke up slowly & started rehab a few months later. I'm now walking normal & even jog a very short distance, 1/2 a block. I still have a ways to go to get my stamina back but for some it takes a month or several years. Just make sure he keeps moving and when he's not moving, he should imagine moving and doing normal things every night before going to sleep. And exercise to make sure the brain gets plenty of oxygen to heal. And use some kind of nutrition tracking app to maintain a healthy diet, I lost more than 88lbs. I use BiteSnap but there are other apps the do the same. My thoughts & Prayers are with you.
TIME-I had my stroke in 2011 & I am still progressing everyday!! "Never Give Up". Great video
DonnAerobics have faith u ll come out of that..

God Bless you Dr Eric C. Leuthardt, for the good work you do to help people 🙏
Thank you Doctor Eric for this video I had a stroke on 2021 Doctors day I would not walk again but after seeing this guess what I will walk again and move my left side and of course with the help of God I think God put this took me to this video he works is mysterious way
My aunt had a stroke a few days ago. Hope she is getting well soon.🙏
Hi, bravo for you, Dr. Eric C. Leuthanrdt. God Bless you today and always. With much gratitud and affection.
Dr. Leuthart is an amazing communicator. he is so fortunate he has both his head and heart superbly functioning. I am in awe. Thank God for you, Dr. leuthardt.
Very inspiring. This TedTalk deserved much more views
What a genuinely inspiring video. I had a hemorrhagic stroke in my cerebellum exactly 1 year ago. Surgeons had to remove 1/3 of my cerebellum. I’m a 37 year old husband and father of 2 boys and the stroke was a crushing blow to my family and I.
This doctor is doing good work. God bless him and all people that are suffering, stroke or otherwise.
How are you doing now ?? Feeling better
@@gigimezoui5184 Far better but sometimes I despair (slightly) that I’ll never be the same. Can’t do a lot of activities that fathers do with their sons. My inability to do everyday things that people take for granted is humiliating but I persevere.
Had two daughters in the last 4 years so they keep me active and working hard. God is good.
@@kfrausto please don’t give up , you will get through it in god s willing , thank you for sharing with us , I’ll keep you in my prayers
How important is intimacy with your spouse to your recovery? My husband recluses because he can't be around the commotion of our family. We have a baby and two preschoolers.
I don't know what i need to do. 🤷
@nextofkin
@@annabican6831 All I can say is I empathize with your situation. If he's like me, then noise and chaos are very bad for his mind. I too like being away from people to de stress.
Yes, intimacy is important. I can only advise you to keep on being supportive of him. I'm 6 years past my stroke and I still struggle every single day. It's one of those things that if you haven't experienced it yourself, it's hard to properly convey. Perseverance is key. I will pray for you.
21/8/15 still improving
This is so true thank you very much for your talk we need to be patient and never give up anything is possible just have to try.❤
My baby brother aged 46 had a hemmorragic stroke 6 months ago June 5/2019. He was on life support and in a coma for almost 2 months. During week 6 he started to open his eyes. He could track me when I came into the room, he could squeeze my hand on command. He continues to recover to this day. The physical aspect is slower. He can't sit up in bed yet but he is beginning to roll over in bed. He continues to recover.
hi how is your brother now please
@@shankar7372 It's been just over 2 years since his stroke. He is doing well considering what he went through. He is paralysed on his right side. He is in a wheel chair full time, has some issues with smallowing whole food so his food has to be minced up, but the cognitive part of his brain is perfect. He is sharp, witty, good memory. His vision is perfect. The recovery time slows down quite a bit but he is still improving with continued physio therapy.
that's great hopefully someday he is able to move his right side🙏
My sister too have it as well since 08/18/19 she is recovering slowly
@@gigimezoui5184 How is she now?
Incredible. Thank you for sharing all this
Thank you Dr. Eric...much love ❤
Very good! Well said, well presented!
I had a stroke in 2012 and spasticity and sleep is depressing me 5 years on and I'm not any better but its a great video thanks
Are you getting better?
I had many TIA's before my full stroke. March 15, 2012 I had my stroke. Some of my stroke symptoms were vertigo and vision loss. I told my story on my youtube channel of what is was like before during and after.
So proud of him and the staff. Rick you are my hero.
Be more. period. thank u Dr Eric.
thank you!
Thank you SIR.
Very inspiring
Great video indeed.

ust 5 years ago I had my 4th stroke, 12 years after my first 3 strokes after I had gotten so far in recovering a fair lot of progress even to drive again, but now after stroke 4, I am still not able to walk nor even to turn myself over in bed alone my husband has been doing everything all totally by himself to look after me turn me over and sit me up I can only sit but not even stand alone the doctors put me in the too hard basket I did not even get any rehab at all for my 4th, stroke but that's another story, Personally I would really be happy just to get back to where I was before my 4th stroke again but it is not an option for me obviously it seems, yes I am negative but I have trouble not to be so.
wish !!! I could meet this docter
Right on
It's an awesome recovery story. I'm not a big fan of describing this as "fixing Rick." Rick was injured, sure. Part of Rick's brain was broken in places, sure. But too many people look at Stroke and TBI survivors as broken people. When something is broken, you either repair it so it's useful to you again, or you throw it out. That is a dangerous way to describe people.

great inspiring facts surviving a stroke is just by the mercy of God graining mobility on the affected part is just by your mind well-done boss.
My husband had a stroke in September 2021 and had gallstones issues it’s been very hard as his caregiver it’s going to be a long journey. His left side now has no mobility
Yeah, dig ity, the best thi g
You're right I need many scans and tests done by competent doctors of my choosing.
Awesome, Finally seeing light at the end of the tunnel. I have brain surgery 5 yrs back and my left side limbs are still weak. Isn't the treatment commercial yet. How can I contact the Dr or Hospital?
I tried it with no success. Perhaps you need to get your therapist or physiatrist to do it.

I would love to try this. I had a stroke 4 years ago, 2 week after giving birth. I so desperately want to hug my children with both of my arms. A one armed hug just isn't the same! How do I go about trying this?! I don't think they practice this in the uk where I live. Help!
SO HAPPY from 11:50 ❤️

My 60-year old brother had a stroke a couple of years ago affecting the left side of his body. He is left-handed. Thru working with various physical therapists he has regained the used of his left hand and can now walk slowly without a cane, but still drags the left leg. My question is: Do the "Ips" side of the brain signals emit a sound, a tone? My brother is a musician and loves to make music which is hard for him still -- he is a drummer and can only keep the beat with his right hand at this time. Is it possible for the brain to react to a musical tone that would resonate as the same frequency as the "Ips" signals? Linda
Help!!! 3 years subluxation in left shoulder. But left leg got estem and jumpstarted the muscles and have minimum use. Mostly just leverage or momentum based
There is a RUclips video 60 minutes (tv show) aired on a shot they inject in the spinal cord that has miraculous results! Best wishes to all effected xxoo
What is it called please?
Jan, search in RUclips for reverse stroke amazing new stroke cure. Mmm there are some aspects there to be analyzed.
I got my stroke in March 2021. I now have Aphasia and vision hemianopia. Does one have information for me to improve my vision due to my hemianopsia??
Happy new year Dr! Thanks so much for what you shared. You gave me hope!! My husband was stroked Jan 9, 2019. Till now he can't move his body. His head n neck are normal. His memory is good. He can talk. The only problem is his body, upper n lower limb which he cant move. His doctor said it's ischemic stroke/ pontine. Will this kind of stroke recover?
How can I get this treatment ?
Way cool... only question: how will Korporate Amerika turn this into Unobtainium? (or leave it to the Chinese)
From the drawing it looks like his right hemisphere is damaged, which shoulfd mean his LEFT hand was paralyzed. But drom the video of him it looks like it is his RIGHT hand that is affected. Which is it??!
My AVM stroke happened in June, 2012 and it's been 5 years now. I still can't move my left hand. Will this brain computer interface thingy ever come to HK? I don't think HK hospitals are equipped with any devices that can help stroke patients to regain their mobility skills. I am seriously stuck here not making any progress :( Is there a chance to just try that awesome brain computer interface device? I really want to play the piano again or to just hug my tabby...
