Adding neuromuscular electrical stimulation to physiotherapy boosts functional performance in hospitalized patients with ...

Functional Electrical Stimulation (FES) is emerging as a transformative modality in muscle rehabilitation. By delivering controlled electrical impulses to targeted muscles, FES induces contractions ...

Functional electrical stimulation (FES) technology is a new type of treatment, which is through the simulation of the nerve on the muscle issued by the electrical signals for rehabilitation training.

Spinal cord injuries are life-altering, often leaving individuals with severe mobility impairments. While rehabilitation robotics—devices that guide movement during therapy—have improved training for ...

For people with paralysis or amputation, neuroprosthetic systems that artificially stimulate muscle contraction with electrical current can help them regain limb function. However, despite many years ...

Contralaterally controlled functional electrical stimulation (CCFES) was associated with greater reduction in upper extremity impairment compared with conventional cyclic neuromuscular electrical ...

Researchers developed a way to help people with amputation or paralysis regain limb control. Their optogenetic technique could offer more precise control over muscle contraction, along with a dramatic ...

A new drug-free, minimally invasive intervention targets the root cause of progressive loss of neural function in spinal muscle atrophy (SMA), an inherited neuromuscular disease. An intervention, ...

In the last few decades, individuals with mobility issues have seen a flurry of advancements in neuroprosthetic devices, artificial systems that seek to replace a particular sensation or lost ability.
