Distal Nerve Electrical Stimulation for Neuromuscular Reinnervation
Sponsor: National Cheng-Kung University Hospital
Summary
During the process of nerve microsurgical reconstruction, 30 minutes of electrical stimulation is applied to the distal end of the damaged nerve to assess its potential benefits for nerve regeneration, functional recovery, slowing down the degeneration at the neuromuscular junction, and preventing muscle atrophy.
