Abstract:
Training the inspiratory muscles using a training device includes evaluating the endurance of the inspiratory muscles of the patient, including the time to the onset of exhaustion, setting parameters of the training device, directing an monitoring endurance training sessions using the training device, providing feedback to the patient during the training and repeating the testing, setting, directing and providing steps as periodically.
Abstract:
The invention relates to an electrical stimulation device (1) with a stimulator (2), containing a generator (3) for generating electrical stimulation impulses with defined stimulation parameters, and a voltage supply (4) for supplying the generator (3) with electrical energy, and with at least two needle electrodes (5) for insertion into the skin surface of an area that is to be stimulated, which needle electrodes (5) are connected to the stimulator (2). According to the invention, the needle electrodes (5) are arranged in a common electrode housing (6) and are connected to the stimulator (2), preferably releasably, via a line (7).
