Brief Summary: The effect of neuromuscular electrical stimulation on muscle atrophy in sedated patients on intensive care was studied The aim of this study was to explore if electrical stimulation could prevent muscle atrophy
Detailed Description: Patients were included in the study one day after administration when prolonged sedation and ventilation were expected They were divided into intervention n7 and control n14 groups For the intervention group an intermittent neuromuscular electrical stimulation was applied daily for 30 minutes on the right thigh whereas the left thigh was used as a control Heart rate respiration rate systolic and diastolic blood pressure and oxygen saturation were monitored before during and after the electrostimulation Perimeter of the right and left thighs was measured in both groups every 3 days at 5 cm above the upper edge of the kneecap
