Physiological and Neurological Rationale for Wireless Functional Electrical Stimulation (FES) for Foot Drop Ambulation
Peripheral nerve lesions interrupt action potential propagation to distal motor units, inducing flaccid paresis of the ankle dorsiflexors and blunting somatosensory feedback from plantar mechanoreceptors, substantially elevating fall risk.
Bidaya structures home therapy following detailed manual muscle testing and sensory mapping. We deploy functional electrical stimulation and task-oriented gait drills to preserve neuromuscular junction viability and stimulate axonal sprouting without inducing overuse fatigue.
