Abstract
|
|
|
Currently, a major factor limiting the widespread clinical application of functional electrical stimulation is rapid muscle fatigue which accompanies its use. This study compared the both stimulating frequencies, 25 Hz and 50 Hz, on the rate of
muscle
fatigue of dorsiflexor muscles of the human ankle. We found that higher-frequency stimuli(50Hz) will fatigue more rapidly than the lower-frequency(25 Hz), when using surface electrodes for functional electrical stimulation(FES). Rapid muscle
fatigue
during higher-frequency electrical stimulation may be due to a impaired excitability of the muscle-fiber membrane.
Thus, the lower-frequency functional electrical stimuli may provide significant advantages than high-frequency functional electrical stimuli for decreasing rapid muslce fatigue.
