Revisiting the neurofunctional approach: conceptualizing the core components for the rehabilitation of everyday living skills.

abstract：BACKGROUND:The number of electrical injuries are rising in proportion to the increased use of electricity in both domestic and industrial sectors. There are multiple ways in which electricity can cause tissue damage, which can be due to direct effects, electroporation and thermal effects. However, these mechanisms fail...
