Summary
The aim of the present study is to evaluate the effects of neuromuscular electrical
 stimulation (NMES) combined with conventional physiotherapy (Experimental Group), compared to
 conventional physiotherapy only (Control Group) in critically ill Intensive Care Unit (ICU)
 patients, by means of a randomized controlled clinical trial. The investigators expect that
 the NMES program will be able to reduce muscle structure and function losses compared to
 control group, and will improve muscle quality faster, will reduce the ventilation time and
 the total time spent at the ICU, as well as improve functionality of these patients. In
 addition, the researchers expect to understand which mechanisms determine such adaptations in
 the musculoskeletal system of these patients.
