Through theory and practice, clinicians will gain the skills, knowledge and confidence about electrical stimulation such that they can take any 1- or 2-channel muscle stim unit, and make the appropriate choices re: choosing the patients likely to succeed with FES, setting stimulation parameters and placing electrodes to achieve the desired movement in the upper […]
Functional Electrical Stimulation (FES) is the use of neuromuscular electrical stimulation to enhance control of movement towards the performance of functional activities. FES provides the needed repetition of muscle activity to effect neuro-plastic changes and motor learning in clinical populations such as stroke, TBI, SCI, MS and other upper motor neuron lesions. Applications include subluxed […]
