垂足刺激器用于通过将腓总神经（CPN）的功能性电刺激（FES）的应用与步态周期的摆动相同步来纠正偏瘫垂足。一个研究下垂足刺激器（DFS）已经开发出一个非常灵活的架构，使各种步态矫正策略的调查。便携式设备经过精心设计，以优化功能，同时将其尺寸和功耗降至最低。该器械有两个刺激通道，每个通道的所有刺激参数均可独立编程。提供四个模拟和四个数字传感器输入通道，可用于各种传感器类型。微控制器核心用于实现不同的控制算法。基于PC的用户界面使系统配置的编程变得简单。(C)2002年妇女平等研究所。由爱思唯尔科技有限公司出版。保留所有权利。
Drop Foot Stimulators are used to correct hemiplegic drop foot by synchronising the application of Functional Electrical Stimulation (FES) of the Common Peroneal Nerve (CPN) to the swing phase of the gait cycle. A research Drop Foot Stimulator (DFS) has been developed with a very flexible architecture to enable the investigation of a variety of gait-correction strategies. The portable unit has been carefully designed to optimise functionality while keeping its size and power consumption to a minimum. The device has two channels of stimulation, with all parameters of stimulation for each channel independently programmable. Four analogue and four digital sensor input channels are provided with a wide variety of sensor types possible. A microcontroller core is utilised to enable the implementation of different control algorithms. A PC-based user interface enables easy programming of the system configuration. (C) 2002 IPEM.
