Investigation of Low‐Current Direct Stimulation for Rehabilitation Treatment Related to Muscle Function Loss Using Self‐Powered TENG System

Advanced Science, 2019
Muscle function loss is characterized as abnormal or completely lost muscle capabilities, and it can result from neurological disorders or nerve injuries. The currently available clinical treatment is to electrically stimulate the diseased muscles. Here,
