متن کامل1 WHITEPAPER: EMG REGISTRATION OF PELVIC FLOOR MUSCLES Whitepaper: EMG Registration for Pelvic Floor Muscles
Introduction Electromyography (EMG) is a useful and objective tool to obtain information about the muscle activity(1). A muscle consists of muscle fibres. The ends of the efferent nerves are connected to the muscle fibres through motor units. Every single motor unit serves several muscle fibres. An electrical impulse, traveling through the nerves and motor units, cause a depolarisation (contrac...

متن کاملNeural control of the female urethral and anal rhabdosphincters and pelvic floor muscles.
The urethral rhabdosphincter and pelvic floor muscles are important in maintenance of urinary continence and in preventing descent of pelvic organs [i.e., pelvic organ prolapse (POP)]. Despite its clinical importance and complexity, a comprehensive review of neural control of the rhabdosphincter and pelvic floor muscles is lacking. The present review places historical and recent basic science f...
