简要总结
The prevalence of peripheral vascular diseases is on the rise, mainly due to the increase in their risk factors, such as the aging of the population, the three with greatest clinical significance being peripheral atherosclerotic obstructive disease (PAOD), chronic venous insufficiency (CVI) and venous thromboembolism (VTE). Muscle physical exercise stimulates circulatory development. But it is not always possible. A clinical, interventional, prospective, single-center, randomized, single-blind study was carried out to evaluate the effect of neuromuscular electrical stimulation in 10 healthy individuals, in which there was an increase in the velocity of arterial and venous blood flow in the lower limbs, an increase in the volume of venous flow in the popliteal vein, increased diameter of femoral and popliteal vessels in healthy individuals and non-significant increase in tissue plasminogen activator. The systemic effects of neuromuscular eletric stimulation (NMES) have also been demonstrated, in the absence of adverse events and significant discomfort.
