1 Preventing fatigue of fast striated muscles of the pelvic floor and slow striated muscles of the limb by manipulating the on-off time of electric stimulation  Ariane Poortmans, LB, Jean-Jacques Wyndaele, MD, DSC, PhD  Archives of Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation  Volume 83, Issue 4, Pages (April 2002) DOI: /apmr Copyright © 2002 American Congress of Rehabilitation Medicine and the American Academy of Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation Terms and Conditions

2 Fig. 1 Evolution of the contraction force during 10 minutes of stimulation of the iliococcygeus when different on-off time ratios were used. The results are expressed as mean remaining force, relative force (%) of the initial maximal isometric tension, after 5 and 10 minutes of stimulation (n = 9): ●, 3 on 40 off; ■, 3 on 30 off; ▴, 3 on 20 off; ▾, 3 on 10 off.

3 Fig. 2 Evolution of the contraction force during 10 minutes of stimulation of the pubococcygeus when different on-off time ratios were used. The results are expressed as mean remaining force, relative force (%) of the initial maximal isometric tension, after 5 and 10 minutes of stimulation (n = 9): ●, 3 on 40 off; ■, 3 on 30 off; ▴, 3 on 20 off; ▾, 3 on 10 off.

4 Fig. 3 Evolution of the contraction force during 10 minutes of stimulation of the soleus when different off time ratios were used. The results are expressed as mean remaining force, relative force (%) of the initial maximal isometric tension, after 5 and 10 minutes of stimulation (n = 9): ●, 5 on 40 off; ■, 5 on 30 off; ▴, 5 on 20 off; ▾, 5 on 10 off.

5 Fig. 4 Evolution of the contraction force during 10 minutes of stimulation of the soleus when different on-off time ratios were used. The results are expressed as mean remaining force, relative force (%) of the initial maximal isometric tension, after 5 and 10 minutes of stimulation (n = 7): ●, 10 on 20 off; ■, 20 on 20 off; ▴, 10 on 30 off; ▾, 20 on 30 off.
