RehaIngest and automatic detection and evaluation of swallowing
Swallowing disorders are common and serious after stroke, brain injury, in ALS and a range of other conditions. For the diagnosis and treatment of swallowing disorders it is obviously important to have a reliable identification and evaluation of swallowing disorders. For use in the everyday clinic, non-invasive procedures which would allow objective, reliable swallowing detection would represent a significant advance. This system is now available as RehaIngest created by Hasomed GmbH. This development combines EMG of critical muscles along with Bioimpedance.

Using the Stimulette Edition 5 with denervated muscles
The Stimulette Edition 5 supports a wide variety of electrotherapy waveforms that are useful for muscle weakness, pain and paralysis. In the case of muscle weakness due to denervated muscles the product supports two classes of waveforms. We discuss in this article how we approach using the stimulator with denervated muscle
Electrotherapy, FES and it's historical roots
Functional Electrical Stimulation and its parent topic, Electrotherapy have been around a long time now but it seems to me are still not well-understood or embraced in the mainstream of healthcare in the UK. In a series of articles im going to take a look at this topic from a number of points of view. In this first article we peek at the historical roots of electrotherapy.
Elbow stiffness and choosing effective orthotic bracing
We discuss choosing an elbow orthosis to assist with a correctable elbow contracture. The three designs from Anatomical Concepts are easy to apply, off the shelf products that are comfortable and effective. Static progressive or dynamic corrective designs are available. The designs are the 1250 EMO, the 1300 QUAD and the 1350 EROM
Trying an Indego exoskeleton in 2019
As we pointed out in a recent article “How to Buy an Indego Exoskeleton”, we expect that potential users will want to try each exoskeleton on the market and explore what they can do. This is not something that should be done with a “quick demo”. In fact, it might be unsafe to take this approach because each exoskeleton will demand a certain level of “competence” from the user to get the best out of it.
