Improvement of Motor Imaginative Ability Through Functional Electrical Stimulation

Plain-language summary

This is a experimental, randomised, parallel-group, clinical study. A sample of university students will be divided into 4 groups, where one of them will act as a control group (no intervention), and the other three will undergo hand training with two different types of functional electrical stimulation devices and a final group will receive hand training with video games. Inter-group analyses will be performed before the start of the training (pre-intervention), after the end of the programme (post-intervention), and three weeks after the end of the programme (follow-up assessment). Intra-group analyses will also be carried out to check whether the training has led to an improvement in the quality of motor imagination, as well as an improvement in manual dexterity in each of the groups. In order to carry out the project, a collaboration agreement will be signed with the company FESIA TECHNOLOGY S.L, which will provide a FESIA GRASP device for the study, as well as the consumables (electrodes).
