Functional electrical stimulation (FES) is a technique that uses low-energy electrical pulses to artificially generate body movements in individuals who have been paralyzed due to injury to the central nervous system.
Subacute FES (non-fulminant FES) - The three characteristic features of fat embolism are present: respiratory distress, neurological signs, and skin petechiae. Petechiae are seen on the chest, axilla, shoulder, and mouth. [5] Occulsion of dermal capillaries by the fat emboli result in petechial rash. Petechiae rash occurs in 50 to 60% of the ...
Functional Electrical Stimulation (FES) is commonly used in 'foot-drop' following stroke, but it can be used to help retrain movement in the arms or legs. [ citation needed ] Bobath (NDT)
Neuromodulation is an evolving therapy that can involve a range of electromagnetic stimuli such as a magnetic field ... Functional electrical stimulation (FES)
Massage therapy has been used to aid in range of motion rehabilitation. Literature has shown that participants with spinal cord injuries that had massage therapy added into their rehabilitation had significant improvement observed by physical therapist in functional living activities and limb range of motion.
Electrotherapy is the use of electrical energy as a medical treatment. [1] In medicine, the term electrotherapy can apply to a variety of treatments, including the use of electrical devices such as deep brain stimulators for neurological disease. [2]
The Family Environment Scale (FES) was developed and is used to measure social and environmental characteristics of families. [1] It can be used in several ways, in family counseling and psychotherapy, to teach program evaluators about family systems, and in program evaluation.
Chronic subcortical electrode implant in a laboratory rat used to deliver electrical stimulation to the brain. Electrical brain stimulation (EBS), also referred to as focal brain stimulation (FBS), is a form of electrotherapy and neurotherapy used as a technique in research and clinical neurobiology to stimulate a neuron or neural network in the brain through the direct or indirect excitation ...
