Neuromuscular Electrical Stimulation for Skeletal Muscle Function
Lack of neural innervation due to neurological damage renders muscle unable to produce force. Use of electrical stimulation is a medium in which investigators have tried to find a way to restore movement and the ability to perform activities of daily living. Different methods of applying electrical current to modify neuromuscular activity are electrical stimulation (ES), neuromuscular electrica...
متن کاملNeuromuscular electrical stimulation for quadriceps muscle strengthening after bilateral total knee arthroplasty: a case series.
STUDY DESIGN A case series. OBJECTIVES The purpose of this case series was to assess the effect of high-intensity neuromuscular electrical stimulation (NMES) on quadriceps strength and voluntary activation following total knee arthroplasty (TKA). BACKGROUND Following TKA, patients exhibit long-term weakness of the quadriceps and diminished functional capacity compared to age-matched healthy...

متن کاملA Murine Model of Muscle Training by Neuromuscular Electrical Stimulation
Neuromuscular electrical stimulation (NMES) is a common clinical modality that is widely used to restore (1), maintain (2) or enhance (3-5) muscle functional capacity. Transcutaneous surface stimulation of skeletal muscle involves a current flow between a cathode and an anode, thereby inducing excitement of the motor unit and the surrounding muscle fibers. NMES is an attractive modality to eval...
متن کاملSurface neuromuscular electrical stimulation for quadriceps strengthening pre and post total knee replacement.
BACKGROUND Total knee replacement has been demonstrated to be one of the most successful procedures in the treatment of osteoarthritis. However quadriceps weakness and reductions in function are commonly reported following surgery. Recently Neuromuscular Electrical Stimulation (NMES) has been used as an adjunct to traditional strengthening programmes. This review considers the effectiveness of ...
