Functional electrical stimulation [PDF]
Physiological Measurement, 1997 In the health-care professions, electrical stimulation is used for three purposes: to aid diagnosis; as a therapeutic tool; and to restore lost or damaged functions. Functional electrical stimulation (FES) and functional neurostimulation (FNS) are terms which are more or less interchangeable, and which encompass the third of these purposes.

Electrical stimulation of teeth
Pain, 1976The technical problems of stimulating intact teeth in clinical diagnosis and in pain research are discussed. Bipolar stimulation has no advantage over monopolar stimulation for most applications. A 100 V constant current stimulator is suitable for monopolar stimulation of healthy teeth with a large electrode at about threshold intensity, but, for ...

Extracochlear Electrical Stimulation
Artificial Organs, 1989Abstract: Twelve patients with sensorineural hearing loss were stimulated by a transtympanic electrode contacting the cochlear promontory. Nine of them were tested to study hearing perception associated with various features of electrical signals, using an auditory electrical stimulator. Biphasic pulse bursts and sine‐wave bursts were used as stimuli.

Electrical Stimulation and Magnetic Stimulation*
2023With respect to lower urinary tract dysfunctions, electrical stimulation (ES) is applied, particularly to the pelvic floor muscles, bladder, and sacral nerve roots. The ES of the pelvic floor aims at stimulating motor fibres of the pudendal nerve, which may elicit a direct contraction of the pelvic floor muscles or the striated peri-urethral ...

Electrical stimulation of breathing
Human Physiology, 2010We have generalized data on different breathing electrostimulation methods and have shown their merits and demerits. We have presented electrostimulation methods, the electrostimulators description, different variants of electrodes site, parameters influence. It has shown advantages breathing electrostimulation application in a medical practice.

Extracochlear Electrical Stimulation
Scandinavian Audiology, 1984Extracochlear electrical stimulation was carried out in 7 patients. We used square-wave signals. Electrode positions at the oval and round window showed the lowest current thresholds. The threshold of sound sensations elicited by electrical stimulation was higher in the high frequency than in the low frequency range.

Electrical Stimulation and Language
Journal of Clinical Neurophysiology, 1994Electrical stimulation has been used for over half a century in clinical settings to facilitate the surgical treatment of patients with intractable seizures and cortical structural lesions. It should be employed as the final result of a stepwise process in patient management but, when called for, can be very accurate in localizing critical functional ...

Transcutaneous Electrical Stimulation
Archives of Otolaryngology - Head and Neck Surgery, 1986To the Editor .—I was pleased to read that Dr Dobie has explored electrical tinnitus suppression, as reported in the July 1986 issue of theArchives, 1 but his success rate was extremely poor and could be attributed to a placebo effect. I would like to offer a word of caution and advice to researchers in the field of electrical treatment, not just for ...
