| dc.description.abstract | Neuromuscular electrostimulation (NMES) is a therapeutic resource widely used by most physiotherapists with the objective of favoring muscle strengthening, prevention or recovery from atrophy due to disuse, however there is still no scientific consensus on which is the most effective current for this purpose. This study aims to evaluate the acute effect induced by low and medium frequency electrostimulation in an isometric contraction of wrist extension and compare them with the maximum voluntary isometric contraction (MVIC) (1) in the force production capacity and (2) in the vertical and horizontal values of the cross-sectional area of the Extensor Digitorum Communis muscle (EDC). There are no differences between the mean values for height or width between the TENS and Kotz currents, nor between the two NMES currents and the MVIC. No differences were found in the capacity for power generation of the administration of NMES currents and the MVIC. No differences were found in the height or width values between the TENS and Kotz currents, nor between the two NMES currents and the MVIC. No differences were found in the capacity for power generation of the exclusive administration of NMES currents and the MVIC, in a population of healthy adults. | pt_PT |
