The application of precisely controlled functional electrical stimulation to the shoulder, elbow and wrist for upper limb stroke rehabilitation: a feasibility study. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Functional electrical stimulation (FES) during repetitive practice of everyday tasks can facilitate recovery of upper limb function following stroke. Reduction in impairment is strongly associated with how closely FES assists performance, with advanced ...

Abdominal functional electrical stimulation to improve respiratory function after spinal cord injury: a systematic review and meta-analysis [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Objectives: Abdominal functional electrical stimulation (abdominal FES) is the application of a train of electrical pulses to the abdominal muscles, causing them to contract. Abdominal FES has been used as a neuroprosthesis to acutely augment respiratory

Modeling and control of a novel FES driven assisted cycling mechanism [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Functional Electrical Stimulation (FES) driven cycling using single muscle group, the quadriceps, is achieved using PID controller with a novel assisting mechanism represented by a flywheel with an electrical clutch. This mechanism is useful for disabled

Study on the Elbow Movement Produced by Functional Electrical Stimulation(FES).

open access: yesThe Tohoku Journal of Experimental Medicine, 1994
Functional electrical stimulation (FES)-induced movements of the upper extremity using the electromyography (EMG)-based stimulation data, which were created on the basis of EMG analysis of elbow flexion and extension in a normal human subject, were examined. As a result of the FES to the elbow flexors and extensors in another normal subject, smooth and
