The ideas centered on EMS devices for lateral transfers, bed-to-stairchair transfers, and stair descent transport, and served as the starting point for the development of EMS devices in subsequent phases of a mixed method research study.
The Food and Drug Administration allows that EMS devices may be beneficial to patients who require muscle reëducation, relaxation of muscle spasms, or who have suffered a stroke or a serious injury.
According to a recent statement from the agency, however, "No EMS devices have been cleared at this time for weight loss, girth reduction, or for obtaining 'rock hard' abs".
While electrical muscle stimulation (EMS) devices have been used to regenerate lost motor functions in rehabilitation medicine since the '60s, during my PhD I explored EMS as a means for creating interactive systems.
According to a recent statement from the agency, however, "No EMS devices have been cleared at this time for weight loss, girth reduction, or for obtaining 'rock hard' abs". And yet the aesthetic possibilities, however unproven, are irresistible to a great many people.

The feasibility of widespread use of EM devices in clinical practice will require further study.
In their review they selected studies (N = 76) that used Electronic Monitoring (EM) devices to measure adherence.
Thermomechanical behavior and deformational characteristics (TMA) of the initial specimens and of the weld have been investigated with TMA Q400 EM device by TA Instruments (New Castle, DE, USA), in the dried air atmosphere, with a linear heating rate of 10°C/min under temperatures from 30 to 250°C.
We identified one EM device that had stopped recording cap openings during the study (0.4%).
Furthermore, in 17 RCTs on fESWT with positive outcome in PEDro, an electrohydraulic (EH) device was used, in 42 RCTs an electromagnetic (EM) device and in 6 RCTs a piezoelectric (PE) device (in 1 RCT both EH and EM device were used).
After three months of electronic monitoring, participants received a letter to remind them to either bring back the EM device to the outpatient clinic or to send it back to the researchers (in a pre-stamped and pre-addressed envelope).
