چکیده
With the rapid development of mathematical tools related to research on human behavior, more and more new discoveries are appeared in domestic and foreign. Surface EMG is a complex biological electrical signals and carrying a large body of information. In this paper, we found that the electromyographic signal is controlled by the brain signals and superposition of limb muscle action potential signal. The focus of this paper is to use mathematical analysis tools and MATLAB software to analyze the performance characteristics of EMG. Through the analysis of the electromyographic signal, we can quickly identify a breakdown of the patients with cerebral apoplexy, and it is cerebral infarction or cerebral hemorrhage, greatly improve the cure rate and reduce mortality. We have gathered upper limb muscle electrical signals of healthy people, patients with cerebral infarction and cerebral hemorrhage patients. By using Fourier transform and AR model to analyze electromyographic signal, we can easily find the difference between the patients with cerebral infarction and cerebral hemorrhage patients.

Generating the Visual Biofeedback Signals Applicable to Reduction of Wrist Spasticity: A Pilot Study on Stroke Patients
Introduction: Application of biofeedback techniques in rehabilitation has turned into an exciting research area during the recent decade. Providing an appropriate visual or auditory biofeedback signal is the most critical requirement of a biofeedback technique. In this regard, changes in Surface Electromyography (SEMG) signals during wrist movement can be used to generate an indictable visual b...

BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE Alterations of gait cycle and foot-drop on the paretic limb are characteristic of stroke patients. Electromyographic biofeedback treatment has been used in rehabilitation of walking, but results are controversial. We performed gait analysis to evaluate the efficacy of electromyographic biofeedback compared with physical therapy. METHODS Sixteen patients with ischemic st...
متن کاملComparative Analysis of Wavelet-based Feature Extraction for Intramuscular EMG Signal Decomposition
Background: Electromyographic (EMG) signal decomposition is the process by which an EMG signal is decomposed into its constituent motor unit potential trains (MUPTs). A major step in EMG decomposition is feature extraction in which each detected motor unit potential (MUP) is represented by a feature vector. As with any other pattern recognition system, feature extraction has a significant impac...

Introduction: LBP is one of the most common health issues throughout the world and has multiple causes which one of them is the defect in motor patterns. This study compared the effectiveness of stability, general and mixed exercises on the electromyographic activity of ipsilateral erector spinae muscle (IES), contralateral erector spinae muscle (CES), gluteus maximus (GM) and medial hams...
متن کاملBiomechanical Assessment with Electromyography of Post-Stroke Ankle Plantar Flexor Spasticity
Spasticity has been defined as a motor disorder characterized by a velocity-dependent increase in tonic stretch reflex (muscle tone). Muscle tone consists of mechanical-elastic characteristics, reflex muscle contraction and other elements. The aims of this study were to determine whether to assess spasticity quantitatively, and to characterize biomechanical and electromyographic spasticity asse...
