The effects of knee joint angle on neuromuscular activity during electrostimulation in healthy older adults

Results suggest that during electrostimulation, knee joint angle influenced neuromuscular activity; increased activity across all intensities (at 90°), when compared to 0° and 45° flexion; and did not influence and activity. Greater electrostimulation-evoked activity has implications for producing a more forceful calf muscle-pump action, potentially further improving venous flow.
