Forced Movements Facilitate Reversal Learning in Rats: Findings From a Rat Robotic Rehabilitation Model

IEEE Transactions on Neural Systems and Rehabilitation Engineering
To evaluate the effectiveness of robotic rehabilitation alone, we developed a robotic rehabilitation model for rats and investigated the effects of inducing forced response-like movements on learning a choice reaction time task.

Improvement of Upper Extremity Deficit after Constraint-Induced Movement Therapy Combined with and without Preconditioning Stimulation Using Dual-hemisphere Transcranial Direct Current Stimulation and Peripheral Neuromuscular Stimulation in Chronic Stroke Patients: A Pilot Randomized Controlled Trial

Frontiers in Neurology, 2017
In this study, we investigated the effects of dual-hemisphere transcranial direct current stimulation (dual-tDCS) of both the affected (anodal tDCS) and non-affected (cathodal tDCS) primary motor cortex, combined with peripheral neuromuscular electrical ...

Incorrect monitoring settings can mimic residual neuromuscular blockade: A case report

JCA Advances
Sugammadex reliably reverses rocuronium-induced neuromuscular blockade by forming a 1:1 complex with rocuronium; however, incomplete or recurrent blockade can still occur.

Can Iterative Learning Control be used in the Re-education of Upper Limb Function, Mediated by Functional Electrical Stimulation (FES)?

, 2007
Introduction There is a body of clinical evidence to support the use of FES to improve motor control (De Kroon et al. 2002) and theoretical support from neurophysiology (Burridge & Ladouceur 2001) and motor learning research (Schmidt & Lee 1999).

A New Controller for FES-Assisted Sitting Down in Paraplegia

Advances in Electrical and Computer Engineering, 2010
A new control strategy that supports the sitting down phase in FES-assisted standing in paraplegia is proposed. It is an adaptation of a well established closed-loop On/Off controller that uses trajectories within the state space of knee angle and knee ...

Effects of neuromuscular electrical stimulation, laser therapy and LED therapy on the masticatory system and the impact on sleep variables in cerebral palsy patients: a randomized, five arms clinical trial

BMC Musculoskeletal Disorders, 2012
Background Few studies demonstrate effectiveness of therapies for oral rehabilitation of patients with cerebral palsy (CP), given the difficulties in chewing, swallowing and speech, besides the intellectual, sensory and social limitations.

Neurophysiological Assessment of Prolonged Recovery From Neuromuscular Blockade in the Neonatal Intensive Care Unit

Frontiers in Pediatrics, 2020
Objective: To evaluate recovery from neuromuscular blockade in infants using Train-of-Four nerve stimulation.Study Design: Ulnar nerve stimulation was used to evoke thumb twitch and reported as Train-of-Four ratio. Thumb twitch was also recorded visually
