Study Groups
Review each arm or cohort in the study, along with the interventions and objectives associated with them.
ES group
External neuromuscular electrical stimulation was applied to the patients in supine position. It was applied for 30 minutes 3 days a week for 8 weeks. This stimulation consists of a total of eight external electrodes, including 2 sheaths wrapped around the thigh area and 4 electrodes for each leg. Electrodes were placed on the anterior and posterior proximal thighs, buttocks, and outside of the hips. The treatment protocol was applied with symmetrical biphasic current at a frequency of 50 Hertz (Hz), with stimulation and rest periods of 5 seconds of contraction and 5 seconds of rest.
ES application
Electrical stimulation (ES) application will be given to the ES group
Sham group
In the Sham group, for 45 minutes, 2 days a week, a vacuum electrode was connected from combined vacuum electrotherapy device over the pelvis and thigh, and only vacuum was applied while the patient was in the supine position, and no current was given from the applied device.
Sham application
Only vacuum was applied and no current was given from the applied device
