[Use of multichannel programmed electrostimulation for the rehabilitation of patients with multiple sclerosis].
Ninety-eight patients with definite multiple sclerosis (MS) have been examined. An effect of functional multichannel programmed electrostimulation (FMPES) on the restoration of balance and biomechanics of walking of patients with different types of MS and severity of neurological deficit was estimated. The effectiveness was measured with stabilometric analysis. The method was efficient in patients with mild and moderate degree of neurological deficit severity. Recommendations on the use of FMPES for patients with different disease severity are formulated.
