Study of optimal stimulus modulation for functional electrical stimulation during gait

对于步态功能的恢复，存在在跑步机上的步态期间对瘫痪的肌肉施加电刺激的方法。本研究从关节角度和肌肉收缩角度计算最佳刺激强度。在步态中使用估计方程进行电刺激的结果是，它可以通过向心收缩引起摆动相的背屈和通过离心收缩引起站立相的缓慢跖屈。

For the recovery of gait function, there is the method that electrical stimulation is applied to the paralyzed muscle during gait on a treadmill. In this study, we calculated the optimal stimulus intensity from joint angle and needed muscular contraction. As a result of the electrical stimulation using estimated equation during gait, it could cause dorsiflexion at swing phase by concentric contraction and slow planterflexion at stance phase by eccentric contraction.
