VitalStim® vs. AmpCare ESP™: Which Electrical Stimulation is Best for Pediatric Feeding and Swallowing Therapy?
Not all electrical stimulation systems for feeding and swallowing challenges are the same. VitalStim® and AmpCare ESP™ both use neuromuscular electrical stimulation (NMES), but they differ in how they target muscles and adapt. AmpCare ESP™ has a design that's friendly for children and offers customizable settings, focusing on postural support for better comfort and results. Understanding these differences helps parents and caregivers choose the right therapy for their child, promoting lasting improvement.
