Journal ArticleDOI

Functional electrical stimulation for neuromuscular applications

TL;DR: In more than 40 years of FES research, principles for safe stimulation of neuromuscular tissue have been established, and methods for modulating the strength of electrically induced muscle contractions have been discovered.
Journal ArticleDOI

Efficacy of an implanted neuroprosthesis for restoring hand grasp in tetraplegia: a multicenter study.

TL;DR: Pinch force was significantly greater with the neuroprosthesis in all available 50 participants, and grasp-release abilities were improved in 49, and all tested participants were more independent in performing ADLs with the NeuroProsthesis than they were without it.
Journal ArticleDOI

An Externally Powered, Multichannel, Implantable Stimulator for Versatile Control of Paralyzed Muscle

TL;DR: Through the use of semicustom integrated circuit technology, an implantable muscle stimulator has been developed that is small, lightweight, has low power consumption, and is intended for permanent usage.
Journal ArticleDOI

Modulation of Muscle Force by Recruitment During Intramuscular Stimulation

TL;DR: The input¿output relationships for modulation of force by recruitment during intramuscular electrical stimulation were examined for cat sleus muscles and human finger and thumb muscles and the implications of the nonlinearities on the proportional control of orthoses employing electrically stimulated muscles are discussed.
