Functional electrical stimulation has been introduced for over five decade to help paralyzed patients regain some lost functions. The technology, however, still does not exist in Thailand. The high cost of imported devices makes it unaffordable for most Thai people. The purpose of this project is to develop the FES technology for the country. Our device IS a common peroneal nerve stimulator for foot-drop...
Functional electrical stimulation (FES) of the common peroneal nerve (CPN), to correct gait, has been shown to be a useful means for the restoration of functional movement in the lower extremities of hemiplegic individuals. Motor function over a twenty-nine year period of selective stimulation of the CPN with an implantable stimulator to correct drop-foot in a 56 year old patient with left-sided hemiplegia,...
This paper proposes an assistance system for Botox procedure of patients with strabismus. Commercial system generates only sound signal when it detects electromyogram (EMG) signal of extra ocular muscles (EOMs). However, this audio based notification can suffer from ambient noise, which could reduce the accuracy. This problem can be minimized when we visualize the EMG signal during the procedure....
Functional Electrical Stimulation (FES) facilitates walking after paralysis by activating the muscles of the lower extremities. The FES-assisted stepping triggered either by a manual switch (switch-trigger), or by an electromyogram-based gait event detector (EMG-trigger) were presented in random order to two subjects with incomplete spinal cord injuries (iSCI) during ten trials over two alternate...
