In a proof-of-concept study involving five individuals with spinal cord injuries, the combination of robotics and electrical epidural stimulation resulted in immediate and sustained muscle activation.

The signing of this agreement with Motion Informatics marks a significant milestone for ReShape as we expand and diversify into rehabilitation technology,” stated Paul F. Hickey, President and Chief ...

Current neuroprosthetics use electrical stimulation to activate the muscles that lack natural electrical inputs from nerves, an approach called functional electrical stimulation (FES). Despite its ...

During his rehabilitation at The Ohio State University Rehab Center, he experienced significant benefits from Functional ...

functional performance, and muscle strength improved significantly in both groups, but no significant differences were detected between the groups. The authors suggest that electrical stimulation ...

Spinal cord injuries are life-altering, often leaving individuals with severe mobility impairments. While rehabilitation robotics—devices that guide movement during therapy—have improved ...
