Electrical muscle stimulation preserves the muscle mass of critically ill patients: a randomized study
INTRODUCTION: Critically ill patients are characterized by increased loss of muscle mass, partially attributed to sepsis and multiple organ failure, as well as immobilization. Recent studies have shown that electrical muscle stimulation (EMS) may be an alternative to active exercise in chronic obstr...
