title: The enigma of "carry-over".
abstract: It is well known that after the cessation of treatment by functional electrical stimulation (FES) there is a continuation of the improvement of the muscle function "carry-over". If this could be harnessed and understood then this might lead to permanent improvement. An examination of evidence from FES, spasticity research and biofeedback might well produce the answers.
