Muscle modifications in fibromyalgic patients revealed by surface electromyography (SEMG) analysis

BACKGROUND Several studies have been carried out in order to investigate surface electromyography (SEMG) response on fibromyalgic (FM) patients. Some studies failed to demonstrate differences between FM patients and healthy individuals while others found differences in SEMG parameters. Different muscular region have been analyzed in FM patients and heterogeneity is also produced because of the ...

Surface Electromyography (semg)

Most practitioners would agree that the main cause of urinary incontinence after RP is sphincter or neurological damage or urethral shortening due to the surgery. The external striated sphincter is tubular and has broad attachments over the fascia of the prostate near the apex. Its innervations arise from the pudendal nerves and the autonomic nerves in the pelvic plexus. Urinary continence reco...

Electrode Placement in Surface Electromyography (sEMG) “Minimal Crosstalk Area” (MCA)

This paper is an introduction to a workshop on electrodes location and specific exercises. Selectivity of EMG electrodes depends on their interspacing, their conductive area and axis direction with respect to the direction of the underlying muscular fibres. Minimal cross talk area (MCA) helps to limit or avoid crosstalk from neighbouring muscles. We present examples of MCA and typical sEMG patt...
