    The document summarizes the Bioness L300 system, which is a wireless functional electrical stimulation (FES) device used in neurorehabilitation. It consists of stimulator cuffs that are placed on the lower leg and thigh. In gait mode, sensors detect leg movement and trigger muscle stimulation for walking. Training mode is for reducing muscle atrophy. Studies show the L300 improved gait measures like stride length more than ankle foot orthoses or standard physical therapy alone in people with foot drop from stroke. It is a widely used FES system that can benefit various patient populations.

    BIONESS L300 AND NEURO

    REHABILITATION
    B Y: R I L E Y B A L L A R D
    WHAT IS IT AND WHAT DOES IT DO?

    • The Bioness L300 is the most up-to-date 3-D motion functional E-stim
    system and most widely used among neuro rehab clinics today
    • This system is completely wireless and has the ability to adapt and detect
    changes in gait speed and contractility of the tibialis A, quadriceps, and
    hamstring muscles.
    • Can help eliminate need for rigid ortheses or braces.
    POPULATIONS

    • The Bioness system can be utilized in virtually all populations, from


    patients who are post-CVA to general deconditioning.
    • Primarily utilized for correcting gait patterns, such as foot drop, due to
    muscle insufficiency or decreased tone.
    COMPONENTS & MODES

    • The L300 system consists of 2 functional stimulation (FS) cuffs, Radio


    frequency (RF) stim unit, Intelli- gait sensor, gait sensor pads, and a
    control unit.
    • Gait mode: motion sensors in lower leg EPG detects position and send the
    appropriate signals to that same EPG. The EPG signal of lower leg is then
    sent the upper thigh cuff, and together providing a reciprocating motion of
    the leg
    (Ex. Tib A EPG activation in terminal stance – midstance; and Hamstring
    EPG activation in swing phase)
    • Training Mode: Uses pre-set cycles – on/off; ramp up/ramp down time,
    etc: primarily used to reduce muscle atrophy.
    SUPPORT ARTICLE #1
    • Mean stride length (involved) Step Length (uninvolved)

    • Admission, Intermediate, Discharge


    • Each participant demonstrated improvements in SLS time,
    stride length, step length, and decreased terminal double
    support time (in both involved and uninvolved
    • Standard therapy + AFO vs. Standard therapy + Bioness
