[Neurophysiological and mathematical optimization of the parameters for electrostimulation of the muscles with...

Patients with poststroke pareses exposed to different frequencies of stimulating current (sinusoidal modulated currents--SMC) were studied for changes in the H-reflex amplitude (by the H max/M max index). The authors identified a number of clinical signs of stroke predisposing to a definite regimen of electrostimulation. Mathematical processing of the clinical findings has helped to develop a technique of the differential use of muscle electrostimulation by SMC in patients with poststroke hemipareses.
