Hello World,
in my search for the latest practical information on E-Stim in the
treathment of ALS-Patients I have come across quite a bit of
controversal theoretical opinions, basics and a lot of details on how to
use such modalities in paretic ALS-Patients. There's plenty of German
and English material on the Internet BUT I AM LOOKING FOR SOME PRACTICAL
INFORMATION : any of you PTs out there using or having used electrical
muscle stimulation as a means of slowing down the atrophic and paretic
process with ALS Patients ?
And if yes : did it change the quality of living of these (terminal)
patients ?
Any comment and information would be appreciated,
