Neuromuscular electrical stimulation for the prevention of venous thromboembolism [PDF]

Cochrane Database of Systematic Reviews, 2015
Venous thromboembolism (VTE) is a serious but preventable cause of morbidity and mortality. Neuromuscular electrical stimulation systems (NMES) for the prevention of VTE may be beneficial for patients in whom pharmacological or standard mechanical prophylaxis methods are contraindicated or are regarded as unsafe or impractical.

Effect of footplate neuromuscular electrical stimulation on functional and quality‐of‐life parameters in patients with peripheral artery disease: pilot, and subsequent randomized clinical trial

British Journal of Surgery, 2020
Supervised exercise programmes for intermittent claudication have poor access and limited compliance. Neuromuscular electrical stimulation (NMES) may be an effective alternative. A proof‐of‐concept study and RCT were conducted.
