Lab-based feasibility and acceptability of neuromuscular electricalstimulation in hip osteoarthritis rehabilitation

摘要

Neuromuscular electrical stimulation (NMES) could provide an alternative oradjunct treatment modality to induce muscle hypertrophy in the hiposteoarthritis population. This preliminary study evaluates the feasibilityand acceptability of NMES to evoke involuntary muscle contractions in adultswith advanced hip osteoarthritis.
