Abstract | In this work was followed the rehabilitation training for two persons in one month period. Compared are: first isotonic and then isometric measurements of ankle, knee and hip angles and the pulling force for four activities: voluntary activity, PNF, FES and combination of all three. The results show comparable values for voluntary and FES exicited movements, improvement with PNF and the greater range of motion and observed force for PNF and FES together. The condition as found at the entrance to the training was greatly improved during the first week, less during the second week, and still shows small positive trend in last two weeks. | |
