Comparison of effectiveness of the addition of neuromuscular electrical stimulation of quadriceps muscle to standard rehabilitation protocol of ACL reconstruction [PDF]

Journal of Applied Sports Sciences
Background: Weak quadriceps after ACL reconstruction (ACLR) may derail patients’ return to sport or regular physical activity levels. Neuromuscular electrical stimulation (NMES) activates muscles in precise sequence and magnitude to directly ...

A Scoping Review of Neuromuscular Electrical Stimulation to Improve Gait in Cerebral Palsy: The Arc of Progress and Future Strategies

Frontiers in Neurology, 2019
Background: Neuromuscular deficits of children with spastic cerebral palsy (CP) limits mobility, due to muscle weakness, short muscle-tendon unit, spasticity, and impaired selective motor control.

Early Stroke Rehabilitation of the Upper Limb Assisted with an Electromyography-Driven Neuromuscular Electrical Stimulation-Robotic Arm

Frontiers in Neurology, 2017
Background Effective poststroke motor rehabilitation depends on repeated limb practice with voluntary efforts. An electromyography (EMG)-driven neuromuscular electrical stimulation (NMES)-robot arm was designed for the multi-joint physical training on ...
