12Sacral nerve stimulation — Sacral nerve stimulation, also termed sacral neuromodulation, involves the implantation of a programmable stimulator under the dura matar which delivers low amplitude electrical stimulation to the S3 or S4 root.Currently, the FDA has approved… …
13Functional electrical stimulation — (commonly abbreviated as FES) is a technique that uses electrical currents to activate nerves innervating extremities affected by paralysis resulting from spinal cord injury (SCI), head injury, stroke or other neurological disorders, restoring… …
14Transcranial direct current stimulation — (tDCS) is the application of weak electrical currents (1 2 mA) to modulate the activity of neurons in the brain. Several generations of neurophysiological experiments have shown that neurons respond to static (DC) electrical fields by altering… …
15Microcurrent electrical neuromuscular stimulator — A microcurrent electrical neuromuscular stimulator or MENS (also microamperage electrical neuromuscular stimulator) is a device used to send weak electrical signals into the body. Such devices apply extremely small (less than 1 milliampere)… …
16functional electrical stimulation — (FES), functional neuromuscular stimulation (FNS) the application of an electrical current by means of a prosthesis, some parts of which may be implanted, to stimulate and restore partial function to muscle disabled by neurological lesions …
17Electrotherapy — Intervention Use of electrical apparatus. Interrupted galvanism used in regeneration of deltoid muscle. First half of the twentieth century. MeSH …
18Electromyography — Not to be confused with Electronystagmography (ENG), Electrocardiography (ECG), or Electroencephalography (EEG). Electromyography Intervention ICD 9 CM 93.08 MeSH …
