WOSU: Bolu Ajiboye, the Elmer Lincoln Lindseth Associate Professor of Biomedical Engineering and bioengineer in the Functional Electrical Stimulation Center at the Louis Stokes Cleveland VA Medical ...

With a zap of electricity from well-placed electrodes on the back of the neck, patients with tetraplegia can regain some modest yet potentially “life-changing” functioning of their hands and arms, ...

Contralaterally controlled functional electrical stimulation (CCFES) was associated with greater reduction in upper extremity impairment compared with conventional cyclic neuromuscular electrical ...

Functional electrical stimulation (FES) technology is a new type of treatment, which is through the simulation of the nerve on the muscle issued by the electrical signals for rehabilitation training.

Bottom line: This study found that, in rats, acute nerve injuries that may recover can be distinguished from those that are unlikely to recover based on the response to intraoperative electrical nerve ...
