The patient will sit on a chair. FES will apply bilaterally using an electrical stimulator (710 P-plus, Iran) with pairs of electrodes (10 \u00d7 5 cm) placed transversally on the quadriceps muscle (5 cm below the inguinal crease and 5 cm above the patella). The stimulation protocol consists in the application of symmetrical biphasic rectangular pulses with a frequency of 30 Hz (pulse duration: 400 \u03bcs). The total duration of the FES session is 30 minutes. Thus eliciting a total of 90 evoked contractions per day. Stimulation intensity will adjust daily by the physical therapist to elicit a visible twitch in each muscle. The maximal stimulation intensity will record for each session and considered as a surrogate marker of FES dose. The patient will sit on a chair. FES will apply bilaterally using an electrical stimulator with pairs of electrodes (10 \u00d7 5 cm) placed transversally on the anterior tibialis muscle. One electrode will place over the motor point of the TA muscle and the other will place immediately below the belly of the muscle. FES will be apply for 20 minutes (pulse duration \u03bcs) with a frequency of 50 Hz.", "treatment_type": "TODO", "pharmacological_treatment": "TODO"}, {"arm_notes": "", "treatment_id": null, "treatment_name": "TODO Treatment - DevicesControl group: The second intervention group will receive sham functional electrical stimulation during 10 sessions of rehabilitation treatment.
