Neruo-rehabilitation with cybernetic orthosis

我们制作了一种带有功率辅助功能性电刺激（FES）装置的控制论套管。它由一种新型的小型FES装置组成，由网状金属丝布覆盖。很容易把它放在偏瘫的前臂。功率辅助FES通过电刺激诱导更大的肌肉收缩，与拾取的自主整合肌电信号成比例，由闭环控制系统调节。本体感觉反馈可能在电刺激治疗中发挥重要作用。然而，运动康复的循证策略越来越多，特别是对于轻偏瘫患者。

We produced a cybernetic sleeve with power-assisted functional electrical stimulation (FES) device. It consisted of novel small FES device covered by mesh wire cloths. It is easy to put it on the hemiparetic forearm. Power-assisted FES induces greater muscle contraction by electrical stimulation in proportion to the voluntary integrated EMG signal picked up, which is regulated by closed-loop control system. Proprioceptional sensory feedback might play an important role in power-assisted FES therapy. Nevertheless, evidence-based strategies for motor rehabilitation are more and more available, particularly for patients suffering from hemiparesis.
