Muscle and bone in paraplegic patients, and the effect of functional electrical stimulation.
1. Four paraplegic men volunteered for an exercise programme in which their paralysed quadriceps muscles were stimulated by means of computer-regulated electrical impulses applied through external electrodes. The first exercise regimen consisted of leg raising against a graded load, and during the second regimen exercise took the form of cycling on a modified bicycle ergometer. Each subject exe...
متن کاملImpact of Functional Electrical Stimulation of Lower Limbs during Sitting Pivot Transfer Motion for Paraplegic People
Individuals with Spinal Cord Injury (SCI), perform Sitting Pivot Transfer (SPT) motion around fifteen times a day using upper extremities. It can lead to upper limbs pain and often shoulder complications. In this paper, we investigate the influence of Functional Electrical Stimulation (FES) on SPT motion of a paraplegic person. First, we proposed to develop...
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 vs
Fourteen Spinal Cord Injured (SCI) and 15 Ablebodied (AB) individuals participated in two 30 minutes (min) standing sessions. The control groups (SCICONT, ABCONT) consisted of both AB and SCI standing still with no muscle contraction. The experimental groups consisted of both SCI subjects (SCIEXP) standing with use of Functional Electrical Stimulation (FES)-induced muscle activation of four low...
