Assessment of Changes in Laryngeal Configuration and Voice Parameters Among Different Frequencies of Neuromuscular Electrical Stimulation (NMES) and Cumulative Effects of NMES in a Normophonic Subject: A Pilot Study
2023, Journal of VoiceCitation Excerpt :Considering this, alternative methods such as electrical stimulation (ES) of the paralyzed muscles/nerves seem to be a good alternative to surgical intervention. ES applied to limb muscles has been shown to increase a) the content of muscle contractile proteins;15 b) number of enzymes used in aerobic pathways,15 c) muscle contraction and relaxation times;16,17 d) resistance level to fatigue,18,19 e) mitochondrial size and f) capillary density and blood supply.20 For voice treatment, early studies using ES, in specific functional electrical stimulation (FES), have been successfully carried out with pacemaker implants that activate the posterior cricoarytenoid muscles (PCA) for cases where the paralyzed vocal fold remained in the medial position.21–24

2004, Archives of Physical Medicine and RehabilitationCitation Excerpt :Both devices were portable, designed for home use. The experimental form of EMS (EXPER) was a 2-channel preprogrammed stimulatora that produced a balanced, asymmetric biphasic pulse (maximum amplitude, 90mA; duty cycle, 10:50 delivering 90 impulses/min; pulse duration, 200μs)17 incorporating simultaneously delivered frequency components of 83, 50, 2.5, and 2Hz with a doublet of pulses (125Hz) at the beginning of each pulse train.13 The pulse train was repeated once every minute and consisted of the following interpulse intervals: 8, 12, 20, 20, 20, 400, and 500ms.
