Beschreibung
FES-cycling is an emergent technology for physical rehabilitation, however the technical knowledge for clinical practice (clinical guidance) and equipment operation is not widespread. Thousands of scientific articles about FES-cycling have been published since 1980’s decade, but not a single book.
This is the first book for FES-cycling use in clinical practice. It will enable healthcare professionals to optimize their patients’ rehabilitation, using a very promising technology for evaluation and treatment. It consists of ten chapters, which describes from theory to clinical practice, highlighting technical characteristics, equipment models, operating modes and technological innovations; physiological bases of FES-cycling therapy: metabolic, cardiovascular and ventilatory responses; functional assessment based on FES-cycling technology; and clinical applicability based on functional outcomes. It also features didactic elements and photos.
Functional Electrical Stimulation Cycling in Clinical Practice is an invaluable resource for students and healthcare professionals (physical therapists, physicians, occupational therapists, physical educators, and nurses).
