Abstract: Functional electrical stimulation (FES) has emerged as a promising technique for motor rehabilitation, yet quantifying its effects remains challenging. While current assessment methods ...

Functional electrical stimulation is widely applied in the rehabilitation of individuals with cerebrovascular disease or spinal cord injury but is limited by rapid muscle fatigue. We present a novel ...

This study compared the effects of contralaterally controlled functional electrical stimulation (CCFES) to cyclic neuromuscular electrical stimulation (cNMES) and task-oriented training (TOT) without ...

Abstract: In this work, we present the potential application of an automatic control system for adjusting the parameter values of Functional Electrical Stimulation (FES). FES is a key enabling ...
