Standardization of surface electromyography utilized to evaluate patients with dysphagia
BACKGROUND Patients suspected of having swallowing disorders, could highly benefit from simple diagnostic screening before being referred to specialist evaluations. We introduce surface electromyography (sEMG) to carry out rapid assessment of such patients and propose suggestions for standardizing sEMGs in order to identify abnormal deglutition. METHODS Specifics steps for establishing standa...
متن کاملSignal processing of the surface electromyogram to gain insight into neuromuscular physiology.
A surface electromyogram (sEMG) contains information about physiological and morphological characteristics of the active muscle and its neural strategies. Because the electrodes are situated on the skin above the muscle, the sEMG is an easily obtainable source of information. However, different combinations of physiological and morphological characteristics can lead to similar sEMG signals and ...
متن کاملTechnical Aspects of Surface Electromyography for Clinicians
Surface electromyography (sEMG) is a measure of the electrical potential present on the skin in consequence of a muscle contraction. This voltage is detected by electrodes placed on the skin. Under certain limitations, when a proper protocol for electrode placement is used, the voltage measured on the skin can be related to the activity of a single specific muscle. The signal is represented as ...
متن کاملElectromyographic models to assess muscle fatigue.
Muscle fatigue is a common experience in daily life. Many authors have defined it as the incapacity to maintain the required or expected force, and therefore, force, power and torque recordings have been used as direct measurements of muscle fatigue. In addition, the measurement of these variables combined with the measurement of surface electromyography (sEMG) recordings (which can be measured...
