 note = {Catch-like property is a force enhancement produced in the muscle when
a brief, high frequency burst of pulses is added to a low frequency electrical stimulation
train. In functional electrical stimulation (FES), low frequency stimulation of approximately
20 Hz has primarily been used to reduce muscle fatigue. In the present study, the
effects of catch-like property on muscle fatigue were analyzed using intermittent electrical
stimulation. The results showed that, compared to conventional low frequency
stimulation, low frequency stimulation taking advantage of the catch-like property
significantly increased the maximum muscle force and workload and decreased muscle
fatigue. The results of the present study suggest that catch-like property is useful in
clinical administration of FES.},
