Functional electrical stimulation-based cycling assisted by flywheel and electrical clutch mechanism: A feasibility simulation study
A new assist mechanism, represented by a flywheel and an electrical clutch, is developed and evaluated, in simulation studies, to assist paralysed legs during functional electrical stimulation (FES)-based cycling exercise in a closed-loop control configuration. The flywheel is engaged and disengaged, by the clutch, to assist or retard the cycling when necessary. The flywheel engages with the cr...
متن کاملFeasibility study of a take-home array-based functional electrical stimulation system with automated setup for current functional electrical stimulation users with foot-drop.
OBJECTIVE To investigate the feasibility of unsupervised community use of an array-based automated setup functional electrical stimulator for current foot-drop functional electrical stimulation (FES) users. DESIGN Feasibility study. SETTING Gait laboratory and community use. PARTICIPANTS Participants (N=7) with diagnosis of unilateral foot-drop of central neurologic origin (>6mo) who were...
متن کاملMaximizing muscle force via low-cadence functional electrical stimulation cycling.
OBJECTIVE This study investigated the effect of pedal cadence upon torque production, power output and muscle fatigue rates during functional electrical stimulation evoked cycling in spinal cord injured individuals. SUBJECTS All subjects had complete thoracic spinal cord injuries T4-T9 (ASIA A) and had been functional electrical stimulation training regularly for at least 6 months. METHODS ...
متن کاملCadence control system for paediatric functional electrical stimulation cycling
Functional electrical stimulation can be used to enable spinal cord injured children to participate in cycling training as part of a fitness programme or exercise testing procedure. Exercise can reduce the impact of secondary health conditions due to the injury. Functional electrical stimulation has shown promising results in adults with a spinal cord injury, but additional considerations are n...
متن کاملVolitional Cycling Augmented by Functional Electrical stimulation in Hemiparetic Adolescents : a Case Series Study
The aim of this work was to assess the feasibility of a treatment based on volitional cycling augmented by Functional Electrical Stimulation (FES) on hemiparetic adolescents. Six chronic hemiparetic adolescents were included in a case series study. Patients underwent FES-cycling training combined with voluntary pedaling. The intervention consisted of 21 sessions lasting 30 minutes each. Patient...
