Functional electrical stimulation of denervated muscles: an experimental evaluation.
For many years there has been a dearth of effective treatment options for the severe wasting and secondary consequences of motor nerve injury. In recent years, however, an intensive regime of electrical stimulation has been shown to have considerable therapeutic benefits. This article reviews the results of an extensive study designed to address the clinically relevant issues in an appropriate ...
متن کاملHome-based functional electrical stimulation rescues permanently denervated muscles in paraplegic patients with complete lower motor neuron lesion.
BACKGROUND Spinal cord injury causes muscle wasting and loss of function, which are especially severe after complete and permanent damage to lower motor neurons. In a previous cross-sectional study, long-standing denervated muscles were rescued by home-based functional electrical stimulation (h-bFES) training. OBJECTIVE To confirm results by a 2-year longitudinal prospective study of 25 patie...
متن کاملFunctional Electrical Stimulation (FES) of Denervated Muscles: Existing and Prospective Technological Solutions
Recent experimental and clinical work gives strong evidence that functional electrical stimulation (FES) is a powerful tool for regeneration, functional restoration and maintenance of denervated musculature, a fact that for various reasons was not recognized in the past. On reason was the lack of associated technology that in comparison to existing FES equipment for nerve stimulation has to mee...
متن کاملFESAM: Functional Electrical Stimulation of Abdominal Muscles
The application of engineering control theory to biological systems is a challenge. Often, in initial engineering models or designs of systems to exert control over a certain aspect or part of a biological system, other control loops may be in operation within the biological system that are not accounted for. When the operation of such unconsidered hidden loops reveals themselves, this presents...
متن کاملState-of-the-art equipment for functional electrical stimulation and functional monitoring of denervated muscles – technical d
Non-invasive functional activation of denervated muscles and assessment of muscle function require novel stimulation and measurement techniques. Stimulation equipment must be safe enough for home-based training though the applied electrical parameters raise critical safety issues. Assessment of biomechanical and electrophysiological parameters is provided by oscillation tonometry, twitch and m-...
