State of the art of functional electrical stimulation in France
Abstract
After summarizing the various physiological and functional effects of surface electrical stimulation, the authors review its main applications, including chronic-use or training orthoses, neuromuscular facilitation and automatic cyclical stimulation. Each of the therapeutic principles is illustrated by discussion of an example, with particular emphasis being placed on the practical methods of application that determine the success of the programme.
