Re-education of upper limb function post-stroke, using interative learning control (ILC) 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).
