Clinical Trial Summary

The purpose of this study is to determine the impact of rehabilitative training of the abdominal wall with direct current neuromuscular electrical stimulation (the NEUBIE device) on recovery time from abdominoplasty (tummy tuck).


Clinical Trial Description

Participants will undergo abdominoplasty surgery and begin rehabilitation training within the first week post-operation. Standardized measurements of recovery progress will be taken starting prior to operation, and at 2, 4, 6, 8 and 12 weeks post-operation. Participants will undergo either the traditional standard of care of rest, with minimal activity for at least 6 weeks (control group) or a 5 week training course with the NEUBIE (experimental group), starting with passive electrical stimulation in the first week post-operation, and moving towards more advanced abdominal movements accompanied with stimulation in the subsequent four weeks. ;
