Аннотация
BACKGROUND: Individuals with spinal cord injury (SCI) are at an increased risk of pressure ulcer development. Electrical stimulation of adjacent muscles may be underutilized as a tool for pressure ulcer healing in individuals with SCI.
METHOD: Single case study.
SUMMARY: A 27-year-old man with C4 tetraplegia developed a left ischial pressure ulcer that for 23 months responded slowly and inconsistently to conventional treatment. Electrically induced lower extremity ergometry (EILEE) was introduced to facilitate wound healing. The pressure ulcer healed completely in 6.5 months.
CONCLUSION: This case illustrates the potential important contribution of EILEE in the healing of an ischial pressure ulcer in individuals with SCI.
