Identification of three basic hand movement patterns by surface electromyography and smart algorithms

Introducción: este artículo presenta la predicción de tres tipos de movimientos básicos de la mano mediante un algoritmo inteligente para extraer características imprescindibles para el reconocimiento de patrones de movimiento a partir del análisis de señales electromiográficas superficiales adq...

El músculo pectoral mayor como opción para la valoración electromiográfica del plexo braquial
The major pectoral muscle as an option for the electromyographic value of the brachial plexus

Cuad. Hosp. Clín; 60 (2), 2019
El registro electromiográfico es una forma de evaluación de los impulsos eléctricos aferentes y eferentes del sistema muscular al sistema nervioso, su valoración permite explorar lesiones nerviosas o patologías neuromusculares en unidades motoras o nerviosas específicas, en este caso, valoramos el ...

Diaphragm quantitative electromyography in difficult-to-treat asthmatic patients

Arq. neuropsiquiatr; 77 (8), 2019
ABSTRACT Quantitative electromyography is an important tool to evaluate myopathies, and some difficult-to-treat asthmatic patients may have a subclinical corticosteroid myopathic process, using only inhaled corticosteroid, according to some studies. In this report, diaphragm quantitative electromyography...

Multivariate linear regression analysis to evaluate multiple-set performance in active and inactive individuals

Motriz (Online); 25 (2), 2019
Abstract Aim: To determine how EMG, anthropometric, and psychological factors, and physical activity levels affect isokinetic peak torque performance (IPT) of multiple set exercise sessions. Methods: 20 participants (27±7 years old), classified as active (A=10) and inactive (I=10), performed 10x10:4...

Symmetric-electromyographic analysis in the evaluation of scoliosis treatment

Rev. bras. med. esporte; 24 (6), 2018
INTRODUCTION: Scoliosis is a three-dimensional deformity of the spine, characterized by a lateral shift that affects body posture. The Pilates Method (PM) promotes alterations in the biomechanics and neuromuscular activation pattern. OBJECTIVE: The aim of this study was to analyze electromyography (EMG) ...
