What this Trial Is About
The aim of Re-Walk-Easy is to evaluate the effects of rehabilitation based on electrical stimulation on the motor performance of critically ill patients. The study will also investigate the pathophysiology of the two forms-the myopathic-predominant and the polyneuropathic-predominant variants-by examining the longitudinal progression of CIP and CIM and determining which form benefits more from electrical stimulation as a rehabilitative approach.
