Final answer:
NMES treatment goals commonly include muscle education, preventing disuse atrophy, and decreasing edema, but not pain control, which is a goal associated with TENS.
Step-by-step explanation:
The common treatment goals for NMES (Neuromuscular Electrical Stimulation) typically include b. muscle education, c. preventing disuse atrophy and d. decreasing edema. While NMES is often associated with muscle rehabilitation goals such as re-educating muscles, preventing muscle atrophy due to disuse, and reducing swelling through muscle pumping contractions, it is not primarily used for pain control. Pain management typically involves TENS (Transcutaneous Electrical Nerve Stimulation), which is distinct from NMES. Therefore, the correct selections for common NMES treatment goals would be options b, c, and d.
