Functional Electrical Stimulation (FES) of Lower Limbs – Compact

A stroke, traumatic brain injury, multiple sclerosis or infantile cerebral palsy can cause damage to the central nervous system and affect the muscles of the extremities. The affected persons are only able to move their hands or feet in a limited way or not in a targeted manner at all. Functional electrical stimulation (FES) can help. Participants will receive an overview of the functioning and indications of FES care. On the basis of case studies, they get a practical presentation of different systems, their limits, as well as the combination with other tools.
