Abstract : Muscles paralyzed because of brain or spinal cord injury may be stimulated electrically through their surviving motor nerve supply. This situation provides an opportunity to improve motor function by functional electrical stimulation (FES). FES is a method of restoring functionality to the upper or lower extremities by electrically stimulating the lower motor neurons. The NESS system is a new surface electrode FES system. The NESS H200® is the FES device for treating the upper extremity. It supports the wrist in a functioning position, allowing the fingers and thumb to move efficiently while reaching, grasping and pinching. This may allow the patients to regain hand function and get back to performing ordinary and essential activities of daily living. The NESS L300TM is a medical device that may help patients regain mobility and independence. The system's gait sensor adapts to changes in walking speed and terrain, allowing the patients to walk easily on stairs, grass and carpet. The NESS system is beneficial for patients who had upper or lower extremity dysfunction caused by upper motor neuron injury or disease.
