Experimental electrical stimulation therapy for epilepsy

Current Treatment Options in Neurology, 2005
Electrical stimulation of the nervous system is an attractive possible therapy for intractable epilepsy, but only stimulation of the vagus nerve has been subjected to large, controlled, and completed clinical trials. Controlled trials are in progress for intermittent cycling stimulation of the anterior nuclei of the thalamus, and for cortical ...

Electrical stimulation as therapy for neurological disorders

IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology Magazine, 2006
This article outlines the basics of implantable neurological stimulators (INSs) and electrodes. Mechanisms of neural stimulation relevant to the clinician are reviewed, including the activating function, strength-duration relationship, and strength-distance relationship as well as safety considerations including safe charge and charge density levels ...

Tachyarrhythmia therapy utilizing electrical stimulation: A review

Journal of Medical Engineering & Technology, 1988
The review is structured in such a way as to fall naturally into four main sections. These are as follows: clinical overview of the common mechanisms leading to the generation of tachyarrhythmias; commonly used sensing techniques and algorithms for the detection of tachyarrhythmias; electrical stimulation algorithms used to terminate many of the ...

Transcutaneous Electrical Stimulation Technology for Functional Electrical Therapy Applications

2006 International Conference of the IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology Society, 2006
Key to a successful application of functional electrical stimulation as a rehabilitation therapy (also termed functional electrical therapy or FET) is modular, portable, programmable, and versatile transcutaneous electrical stimulation technology. In this article a hardware platform, Compex Motion, that has been used successfully to develop numerous ...

Torque history of electrically stimulated human quadriceps: Implications for stimulation therapy

Journal of Orthopaedic Research, 1993
AbstractThe time course of knee extension torque was measured in human quadriceps muscles during 30 min of transcutaneous neuromuscular electrical stimulation (NMES). Ninety subjects were divided into six experimental groups (n = 15 per group), which received stimulation at one of the following frequency/duty cycle combinations: 10 Hz/50%, 30 Hz/50 ...

The role of electrical stimulation therapy in ophthalmic diseases

Graefe's Archive for Clinical and Experimental Ophthalmology, 2014
Electrical stimulation therapy (EST) involves the use of a low-intensity electrical current in the treatment of neuromuscular conditions. During the recent two decades, EST has emerged as a potential neuroprotective strategy in certain ophthalmic diseases, aided by a lack of effective management for these conditions.The aim of this review is to ...
