Interventions/Control_1

The intervention group receives 20 minutes of exercise therapy and 60 minutes of NMES (Intelect Mobile Stim, Chattanooga) daily in bed. Stimulation electrodes are attached to the bilateral motor points of the rectus femoris and gastrocnemius muscles, and the patients are instructed to perform voluntary contractions in response to the stimulation during the NMES. The intervention period will be 7 days and the following outcome measures will be measured before and after the intervention period.

Interventions/Control_2

The control group receives 80 minutes of exercise therapy daily in bed. The intervention period will be 7 days and the following outcome measures will be measured before and after the intervention period.
