Objective:
To review the advances of functional electrical stimulation (FES) in treatment of peripheral nerve injuries.
Methods:
By index of recent literature, the measures of stimulation, the mechanisms of FES and unsolved problems were evaluated and analyzed.
Results:
Great advances have been made in the treatment of peripheral nerve injuries. It can not only enhance the regeneration of injured peripheral nerve, but also prevent muscular atrophy.
Conclusion:
FES is an effective treatment for peripheral nerve injuries.
