Synergy-based functional electrical stimulation and robotic-assisted for retraining reach-to-grasp in stroke: a study protocol for randomised controlled trial
Abstract:Background Customized multi-muscle Functional Electrical Stimulation (FES) based on muscle synergy of the healthy adults, may provide opportunity for improve the upper limb motor function of the stroke survivors. Additionally, synergy-based FES combined with Robotic-assisted Therapy (RAT) can be a novel and more effective therapy for improving upper limb function of the stroke survivors from the perspective of synergistic enhancement. However, few studies examined the effectiveness of combined synergy-based FE… Show more
