Description:
In the case of weak foot dorsiflexion (peroneal nerve palsy), the peroneal nerve is damaged, making it difficult or impossible to lift the foot. This can lead to gait problems and poor posture in the long term.
The innoSTEP-WL surface stimulator uses functional electrical stimulation (FES) to make walking easier. A heel switch detects the walking movement and sends a signal to the stimulator attached to the lower leg. This sends an impulse to the fibular nerve so that the foot lifts at the right moment.
The impulses can be processed by the central nervous system and thus support neuronal rewiring - with positive effects on gait pattern and mobility.
