Diaphragm electromyogram measured with unilateral magnetic stimulation.
The purpose of this study was to establish the phrenic nerve conduction time (PNCT) for magnetic stimulation and further assess the relatively new technique of anterior unilateral magnetic stimulation (UMS) of the phrenic nerves in evaluating the diaphragm electromyogram (EMG). An oesophageal electrode was used to record the diaphragm compound muscle action potential (CMAP) elicited by supramax...
متن کاملAssessment of diaphragm paralysis with oesophageal electromyography and unilateral magnetic phrenic nerve stimulation.
The purpose of this study was to establish a sensitive and reliable method of diagnosing diaphragm paralysis by recording the diaphragm compound muscle action potential (CMAP) using a multipair oesophageal electrode and unilateral magnetic phrenic nerve stimulation. An oesophageal electrode catheter was designed containing six coils (1 cm wide and 3 cm apart), creating an array of four sequenti...
متن کاملEffects of combining mental practice with electromyogram-triggered electrical stimulation for stroke patients with unilateral neglect
[Purpose] The aim of this study was to investigate the effect of mental practice combined with electromyogram-triggered electrical stimulation on neglect and activities of daily living in stroke patients with unilateral neglect. [Subjects and Methods] Thirty-three stroke patients with unilateral neglect were recruited from a local university hospital, and were divided into two groups. The exper...
متن کاملDiaphragm EMG measured by cervical magnetic and electrical phrenic nerve stimulation.
The purpose of the study was to compare electrical stimulation (ES) and cervical magnetic stimulation (CMS) of the phrenic nerves for the measurement of the diaphragm compound muscle action potential (CMAP) and phrenic nerve conduction time. A specially designed esophageal catheter with three pairs of electrodes was used, with control of electrode positioning in 10 normal subjects. Pair A and p...
متن کاملPassive stretch of the diaphragm following unilateral phrenic nerve stimulation.
MASMOUDI et al. [1] reported an exciting pilot study on the beneficial effects of unilateral phrenic nerve stimulation on diaphragm muscle trophicity and structure in mechanically ventilated sheep. They observed that, during 72 h of mechanical ventilation, stimulation sessions of 30 min at 4-h intervals attenuated the development of muscle fibre atrophy in the stimulated hemidiaphragm. Fibres f...
