Purpose: Motivated by a prior successful randomized controlled trial showing that functional
electrical stimulation (FES) therapy can restore voluntary arm and hand function in people …

Background and purpose. This study compared the effect of cyclic neuromuscular electrical
stimulation (NMES), electromyographically (EMG)-triggered NMES, and sensory stimulation …

Objective: Electrical stimulation can be applied in a variety of ways to the hemiparetic upper
extremity following stroke. The aim of this review is to explore the relationship between …

Background. Functional electrical stimulation (FES) allows active exercises in stroke patients
with upper extremity paralysis. Objective. To investigate the effect of motor training with FES …

Purpose. To assess the effects of daily power-assisted functional electrical stimulation (FES)
home program therapy in chronic stroke. Methods. A total of 20 consecutively enrolled stroke …

Objective. To test if functional electrical stimulation (FES) can enhance the recovery of upper
extremity function during early stroke rehabilitation. Methods. Open-label block-randomized …

Background. Surface electrical stimulation (ES) has been shown to improve the motor
impairment of stroke survivors. However, surface ES can be painful and motor activation can …

Stroke is the leading cause of disability among older adults in the United States. More than
700,000 strokes occur each year, with a prevalence of approximately 3 million [1]. Although …
