Abstract		25 years overview of clinical experiences using FES in 80% of treated patients with upper motor neuron lesion is given. On the basis of clinical evaluation the most suitable 1-channel, 2-channel and 6-channel stimulator for therapeutic and orthotic treatment were chosen. In recent years dual-channel stimulation of lower and upper extremity has been increased. In spite of technical and medical problems FES beside conventional rehabilitation methods has to be continued following by the biotechnical research.
