Functional Neuromuscular Stimulation (FNS) is a technique with the aid of which paralysed or paretic muscles are stimulated electrically in order to provide muscular contraction and functionally useful movement. These muscles can be trained to provide standing, cycling and walking in paraplegics as well as cycling in tetrap1egics. The present paper deals with the practical mechanical and electronic control aspects of the equipment designed for standing up and cycling processes. |
