Impact of Myoelectrically Controlled Electrical Stimulation on Motor Recovery in Post-Stroke Patients

This study investigates the effectiveness of Myoelectrically Controlled Functional Electrical Stimulation (MeCFES) in enhancing upper limb motor recovery for post-stroke individuals. The randomized controlled pilot study evaluated two groups: an intervention group (A) using MeCFES and a control group (B). Results indicated significant improvements in the MeCFES group (p=0.04), as assessed by the Action Research Arm Test (ARAT) at pre, post, and follow-up evaluations. This research supports the potential of MeCFES for rehabilitation in stroke recovery.

  1. Figure 2. Action Research Arm Test (ARAT) values for myoelectrically controlled functional electrical stimulation (MeCFES) for (a) intervention group A and for (b) control group B at Pre, Post, and Follow-up (FU) evaluation. The Pre-Post change was significant only for MeCFES group A (p = 0.04 Wilcoxon Signed Rank test).
