Η κλινική αξιολόγηση του κηδεμόνα λειτουργικού ηλεκτρικού ερεθισμού του περονιαίου νεύρου: παρατηρήσεις από την πειραματικη εφαρμογή του, για την αποκατάσταση της βαδίσεως των ημιπληγικών ασθενών

THIS STUDY CONSISTS OF THE CLINICAL EVALUATION OF A FUNCTIONAL ELECTRICAL STIMULATION DEVICE, NAMELY THE LJUBLJANA ELECTRONIC PERONEAL BRACE, FEPB MODEL PO10, WHICH IS AVAILABLE COMMERCIALLY. PATIENTS WERE SELECTED AGAINST CERTAIN CRITERIA FROM THOSE WITH DAMAGED UPPER MOTOR NEURONES REFERRED TO THE DEPARTMENT OF PHYSICAL MEDICINE AND REHABILITATION. MOST OF THESE HEMIPLEGIC PATIENTS, SUFFERED A STROKE AND WERE INITIALLY ADMITTED TO VARIOUS GENERAL HOSPITALS. OUTOF A TOTAL OF 174 PATIENTS, SOME 22 PATIENTS MET THE CRITERIA FOR ELECTRICAL STIMULATION (CALLED FES) OF THE PERONEAL NERVE. THE PURPOSE OF THEIR REHABILITATION TREATMENT WITH FEPB WAS THE RESTORATION OF MOTOR ACTIVITY AND GAIT. THE PATIENT'S GENERAL MEDICAL CONDITION, FUNCTIONAL STATUS AND GAIT WERE ASSESSED BEFORE, DURING AND AFTER THE EVALUATION WITH AND WITHOUT THE DEVICE. A STUDY OF THE RESULTS CONFIRMS THE VALUE OF THIS DEVICE FOR CERTAIN HEMIPLEGIC PATIENTS FOR TREATMENT AND TRAINING, AS AN ASSESSMENT TOOL AND AS A FUNCTIONALLY ACTIVE ORTHOSIS WITH THERAPEUTIC EFFECTS.
