Fuzzy approach for determination the optimum therapeutic parameters in neuromuscular stimulation systems.
This paper presents a fuzzy system for determination the optimum therapeutic parameters (frequency, amplitude and session duration) in neuromuscular stimulation systems. The developed approach has many clinical benefits and features. These include: capability to determine and adjust the therapeutic parameters online during any treatment session, reduction of time and number of sessions needed to overcome the neuromuscular disorders, preventing patient from fatigue or pain that may occur during or after treatment, considering differences between various patients and improving the efficiency of the available neuromuscular stimulation systems.
