Popis: Objective:To explore the effect of multi-channel functional electrical stimulation (FES) on the cognitive function of bedridden elderly, and observe its effect on the complications due to long-term bed, such as pulmonary infection, urinary tract infection and pressure sores.Methods:76 bedridden elderly were randomly assigned to the FES group (n=38) and control group (n=38). Both groups received routine treatment and basic nursing. The FES group was added with multi-channel FES for two weeks, once a day and five times each week. Before and after treatment, the Montreal cognitive assessment (MoCA) scores and event related potentials P300 were used to evaluate the cognitive function, modified Barthel index (MBI) was used to evaluate the activities of daily living (ADL), and the complications, such as pulmonary infection, urinary tract infection and pressure sores were evaluated.Results:After two weeks, the MoCA score and MBI score in both groups were significantly increased than those before the treatment (PPP
