Intensity and dose of neuromuscular electrical stimulation influence sensorimotor cortical excitability
2020-02-24
Abstract excerpt
Neuromuscular electrical stimulation (NMES) of the peripheral nervous system has been largely used in the field of neurorehabilitation to decrease muscle atrophy and to restore motor function in paralyzed patients. The rehabilitative effects of NMES rely on the direct or indirect efferent effect on muscle tone and afferent volleys that induce cortical excitation. Although different neuroimaging tools suggested the...
