Abstract

Neuromuscular electrical stimulation (NMES) has emerged as a promising intervention for stroke rehabilitation, aiming to restore motor function and enhance the quality of life for stroke survivors. This article reviews the latest advancements in NMES techniques, focusing on their application in post-stroke rehabilitation. The discussion highlights the physiological basis, therapeutic mechanisms, and clinical outcomes associated with novel NMES approaches. Furthermore, we examine the integration of advanced technologies such as wearable devices, brain-computer interfaces (BCIs), and personalized stimulation protocols. The conclusion outlines the potential benefits, challenges, and future directions of NMES in stroke rehabilitation.
