متن کاملElectrical Stimulation In Cerebral Palsy
Children and adults with cerebral palsy may have one or more of a variety of movement disorders and primary involvement of both lower limbs, one side of the body or all of the body including the muscles of speech and respiration. Because of the diversity of motor control in cerebral palsy [CP], general scales of functional ability have been developed to improve communication among medical careg...
متن کاملFunctional electrical stimulation in children and adolescents with cerebral palsy.
Functional electrical stimulation (FES) is defined as the electrical stimulation of muscles that have impaired motor control, in order to produce a contraction to obtain functionally useful movement. It was first proposed in the 1980s as a treatment option in children with cerebral palsy (CP). FES is used to achieve a direct orthotic effect during gait, for example, by triggering the dorsiflexo...
