Intended purpose

Functional Electrical Stimulation (FES) evomove - The Inertial sensor (IMU) integrated in the evomove measures the angular velocity and linear acceleration of the system. Both are used to detect walking movements. Adaptive algorithms recognize stimulation-relevant gait phases, which can be controlled by the patients. At the matching times during gait phase, the evomove triggers an electrical stimulation that improves the gait pattern. The regular use of the evomove trains muscles, regulates the tome (spasticity), reduces the formation of contractures and improves the blood circulation in the leg through the recurring contractions of the muscles. Indirectly, users train with the evomove natural gait sequences set by evomotion partner, which can support rehabilitation process.
