Effect of a Home-based Electrical Stimulation on Quadriceps Function After Knee Surgery

NCT02058862 · Status: COMPLETED · Type: OBSERVATIONAL · Enrollment: 87

Last updated 2018-10-09

No results posted yet for this study

Summary

The purpose of this study is to determine if a home-based electrical stimulation (ES) program is more effective than the standard of care (SOC) at improving quadriceps function, functional outcomes, patient reported outcomes, and treatment compliance in patients recovering from knee surgery. It is hypothesized that there will be significantly better outcomes and compliance in ES group when compared to the SOC group.

Conditions
