Stroke is one of the leading causes for disability worldwide. Motor function deficits due to
stroke affect the patients' mobility, their limitation in daily life activities, their participation in …

Upper limb motor deficits in severe stroke survivors often remain unresolved over extended
time periods. Novel neurotechnologies have the potential to significantly support upper limb …

This is the fourth edition of the UK National clinical guideline for stroke. It is an integral part
of the broader goal of the Intercollegiate Stroke Working Party to improve the care of people …

Background Stroke can lead to significant impairment of upper limb function which affects
performance of activities of daily living (ADL). Functional electrical stimulation (FES) involves …

Neurological conditions like hemiplegia following stroke or tetraplegia following spinal cord
injury, result in a massive compromise in motor function. Each of the two conditions can …

Purpose: In response to requests from physiotherapists for guidance on optimal stimulation
of muscle using neuromuscular electrical stimulation (NMES), a review, synthesis, and …

Neuroplasticity is a natural process occurring in the brain for the entire life. Stroke is the
leading cause of long term disability and a huge medical and financial problem throughout …

Background Multiple forms of electrical stimulation (ES) potentially offer widely varying
clinical benefits. Diminished function commonly associated with acute and chronic pain …

Objectives (1) To elucidate the effectiveness of neuromuscular electrical stimulation (NMES)
toward improving activities of daily living (ADL) and functional motor ability post stroke and …

A better understanding of the neural substrates that underlie motor recovery after stroke has
led to the development of innovative rehabilitation strategies and tools that incorporate key …
