Motor-assisted Cycling and FES Cycling for Postprandial Glucose in Diabetic Patients With ADL Disability

Completed · Not applicable

Conditions studied: Type2 Diabetes, Disability Physical

In brief

Exercise has been the cornerstone of diabetes management. However, many diabetic patients have ADL disabilities and experience substantial difficulty in performing usual exercises, such as brisk walking and upright cycling. There is an urgent need to provide alternative exercise modalities for diabetic patients with ADL disabilities. In this study, investigators will investigate the effects on the glucose of three exercise modalities, including motor-assisted cycling (i.e., cycling on a motor-driven bike) and functional electrical stimulation (FES) cycling, during which the investigators will use electrical current to facilitate cycling movements.
