WalkAide 2.0

Description Product Type Muscle stimulator
Technology: FES (Functional Electrical Stimulation) After a stroke or accident, many people have a weakness in lifting their feet. The affected foot can no longer be lifted properly, which makes walking much more difficult and can lead to stumbling. The WalkAide system uses special sensors to detect the movement of the leg and foot. Depending on the movement, the device transmits slight electrical impulses to a nerve that is responsible for lifting the foot. This activates the muscles at the right moment so that the foot is lifted and walking is safer and easier.
