abstract |
Osteoporosis after spinal cord injury is associated with low-trauma fractures, and
consequently with increased risk of morbidity and mortality. The loss of bone mass
density (BMD) due to paraplegia can be reduced through cyclical electrically-induced
muscle contractions. Here we propose an FES control system based on posture switching,
that induces transient loading of the lower limbs during a set of standing postures.
This aims to produce an increased, evenly distributed BMD, whilst minimising FES-induced
muscle fatigue. Here we describe the design and assessment of the FES exercising platform,
comprising a controllable multi-channel electrical stimulator and an instrumented
standing frame. The platform supports standing and postural shifting, provides real-time
human-in-the-loop FES control with on-line feedback to the user. The platforms is
used to investigate the effect of regular exercise on the distribution of BMD in people
with paraplegia. |
