Today’s maternal/fetal monitoring lacks the capability to diagnose labor and predict delivery. The objective of this work was to demonstrate that uterine electromyography (EMG) is proven to be a viable alternative to current monitoring techniques. Uterine EMG was monitored noninvasively and trans-abdominally from pregnant patients using surface electrodes. Several aspects of the uterine EMG wer...

Experience of stress may lead to increased electromyography (EMG) activity in specific muscles compared to a non-stressful situation. The main aim of this study was to develop and validate a stress-EMG paradigm in which a single uncontrollable and unpredictable nociceptive stimulus was presented. EMG activity of the trapezius muscles was the response of interest. In addition to linear time effe...

Abstract In medical treatment, it can be necessary to know the position of a motor unit in muscle. Recent advances high-density surface Electromyography (EMG) measurement have opened possibility extracting information about single units. We present mathematical approach identify these On base an electrostatic forward model, we introduce adjoint efficiently simulate EMG and optimal control show ba...

Este artículo presenta la integración de señales electromiográficas (EMG) y una interfaz cerebro-computadora (BCI) basada en electroencefalográficas (EEG) un diseño domótico asistencia. La EMG utiliza señal miográfica extraída del tibial anterior dos secciones: músculo activo reposo. BCI el potencial visual evocado estado estable (SSVEP) generado respuesta a cuadros parpadeantes. Se empleó méto...

Surface electromyogram pattern recognition (EMG-PR) has been considered as a promising approach for predicting amputees’ motion intentions to control myoelectric prostheses. However, EMG recordings are mostly contaminated by various interferences, which decay the prediction of EMG-PR methods, thus affecting performance prosthesis. One common way solve this issue is improve quality signals via f...

Zebrafish models have recently been highlighted as a valuable tool in studying the molecular basis of neuromuscular diseases and developing new pharmacological treatments. Needle electromyography (EMG) is needed not only for validating transgenic zebrafish models with muscular dystrophies (MD), but also for assessing the efficacy of therapeutics. However, performing needle EMG on larval zebrafi...

Although mean amplitude and ON-OFF timing of muscle recruitment and electromyography (EMG) activation during gait is achieved by an age of six to eight years in normally developing children, recruitment dynamics illustrated by the shape of the EMG waveform may require continued developmental practice to achieve a stable pattern. Previous analyses have quantified the repeatability of the EMG wav...
