Measure
Electric Muscle Stimulation(EMS)
EMS:use programmed middle frequency electric stimulation device(HELEX 573)for both quadriceps stimulation, 32 minutes per day, 5 time per week. EMS: HELEX 573 : strength aggravation mode with middle frequency carrier(1500Hz), minimal voltage for visible muscle contraction(maximum output is 75mA) , 32 minutes per day.
Control
Patients with routine passive rehabilitation program.
