Electric stimulation and hyperbaric oxygen therapy in the treatment of nonunions
Injury, 2006 Up to 10% of the fractures occurring annually in the U.S. end up in non-union or delayed union. Classical treatment with osteosynthesis and bone grafting is not always successful. Alternatives in treatment have long ago been considered. This article presents current concepts in treatment with electrical stimulation and hyperbaric oxygen, the mechanisms

Electrical Stimulation Therapy as Treatment for Poststroke Dystonia
The Journal of the International Society of Physical and Rehabilitation Medicine, 2021This case describes success using high-dose submotor threshold electrical stimulation (EStim) therapy for the management of dystonia in a chronic stroke patient. The authors find this novel EStim treatment is safe and offers the potential to manage poststroke dystonic movements.

Torque history of electrically stimulated human quadriceps: Implications for stimulation therapy
Journal of Orthopaedic Research, 1993AbstractThe 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 ...

Treating a pressure ulcer with bio-electric stimulation therapy
British Journal of Nursing, 2006Mr Jones lived independently until he developed necrotic pressure ulcers over his heels and could no longer mobilize to care for himself. He was transferred to a nursing home where he lived for 18months and where the nurses could care for his wounds.The wound had been on his right heel without changing over the 18months and, although attempts to ...

Influence of electrical stimulation therapy on permanent pacemaker function
Wiener klinische Wochenschrift, 2019Electrical stimulation therapy (EST) and transcutaneous electrical neuromuscular stimulation (TENS), a modality of EST, have become widely applied, accepted and effective methods for the treatment of musculoskeletal and other pain conditions. According to the rising number of permanent pacemaker (PM) wearers the number of potential candidates for EST ...

[Neuromuscular electric stimulation therapy in otorhinolaryngology].
HNO, 2014Animal experiments have shown that after specific nerve traumatization, neuromuscular electrostimulation (NMES) can promote nerve regeneration and reduce synkinesia without negatively interfering with normal regeneration processes. NMES is used routinely in physical rehabilitation medicine.This systematic literature search in the Cochrane Central ...

[Electric brain stimulation for epilepsy therapy].
Der Nervenarzt, 2004Attempts to control epileptic seizures by electrical brain stimulation have been performed for 50 years. Many different stimulation targets and methods have been investigated. Vagal nerve stimulation (VNS) is now approved for the treatment of refractory epilepsies by several governmental authorities in Europe and North America.

[Electric stimulation in dysphagia therapy--a review].
Laryngo- rhino- otologie, 2010In the last years an increased interest in the electrical stimulation has consisted in the treatment of dysphagia. In the article we introduce the anatomical and physiological premises for the method. In a critical analysis the present state of art is represented, the clinical results are checked and the chances for the future are examined.
