Preventing Ischial Pressure Ulcers: III. Clinical Pilot Study of Chronic Neuromuscular Electrical Stimulation
Objective: BIONs™ (BIOnic Neurons) are injectable, wireless microstimulators that make chronic BION Active Seating (BAS) possible for pressure ulcer prevention (PUP). Neuromuscular electrical stimulation (NMES) produces skeletal motion and activates trophic factors, counteracting three major etiolog...
