Functional electrical stimulation for walking in paraplegia.
The Journal of Bone & Joint Surgery, 1987In paraplegic subjects who had functional transection of the spinal cord at a level between the fourth and the eleventh thoracic vertebra, independent reciprocal walking was achieved with the use of a portable microprocessor-controlled stimulator that electrically activated the muscles through percutaneous intramuscular wire electrodes.

Maximal functional electrical stimulation in routine practice
Neurourology and Urodynamics, 1997Maximal functional electrical stimulation is now an established treatment for urgency and urge incontinence. Many studies have been presented with good and consistent results. In a number of prospective studies we have previously recorded very favourable effects in stress incontinence and urge incontinence.

Functional electrical stimulation in neurological disorders
European Journal of Neurology, 2008Functional electrical stimulation (FES) refers to electrical stimulation of muscles in order to improve the impaired motor function. This is achieved by activating skeletal muscles with constant frequency trains of stimulations. This method has been found useful in various neurological disorders like hemiplegia, foot drop and paraplegia including ...

Advances in functional electrical stimulation (FES)
Journal of Electromyography and Kinesiology, 2014This review discusses the advancements that are needed to enhance the effects of electrical stimulation for restoring or assisting movement in humans with an injury/disease of the central nervous system. A complex model of the effects of electrical stimulation of peripheral systems is presented.

Functional Electrical Stimulation and rehabilitation—an hypothesis
Medical Engineering & Physics, 2003Functional Electrical Stimulation (FES), used to mimic a weak or paralysed movement, sometimes is followed by a specific recovery of voluntary power in that movement. The mechanism by which this occurs is unclear, and the presumption has often been that FES may somehow promote adaptive changes in cortical connectivity.

Functional Electrical Stimulation of Extremities
1971Publisher Summary This chapter provides the classification, motor system, and implanted systems of functional electrical stimulation of extremities (FESE). Originally, functional electrical stimulation was intended only to provoke functional movements during activities of daily living in patients with paralyzed extremities.
