Myoelectric silence following unopposed passive stretch in normal man.
The response to unopposed passive muscle stretch applied during sustained contraction was studied in normal man. When the subject did not resist the stretching force, the initial response was a brief cessation of EMG activity in the elongated muscle. The myoelectric silence was observed repeatedly in muscles of the upper and lower limbs. The response to passive stretch is discussed in relation ...
متن کاملStretch reflexes of triceps surae in normal man.
In order to learn more about stretch reflex behaviour of triceps surae, normal human subjects sat in a chair with one foot on a platform attached to a torque motor that produced phasic dorsiflexion displacements on the ankle. EMG activity was recorded from triceps surae and responses were obtained for various conditions. When the subjects's foot was relaxed, stretch of triceps surae produced a ...
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...
متن کاملPatients' silence following healthcare staff's ethical transgressions.
The aim of this study was to examine to what extent patients remained silent to the health care system after they experienced abusive or wrongful incidents in health care. Female patients visiting a women's clinic in Sweden (n = 530) answered the transgressions of ethical principles in Health care questionnaire (TEP), which was constructed to measure patients' abusive experiences in the form of...
متن کاملPosture related to myoelectric silence of erectores spinae during trunk flexion.
Electromyographic activity of erectores spinae exhibits points of abrupt change during trunk flexion from the erect position and return extension. This study examined the positions at which the myoelectric activity suddenly disappeared and later reappeared. Forty adults were investigated to define accurately the inclinations of the trunk, pelvis, and vertebral column at these positions. The pos...
