Their significance extends beyond mere structural support; they actively contribute to various physiological processes. One of the primary functions of SMECs is the regulation of blood flow to skeletal muscles. During physical activity, the demand for oxygen and nutrients increases dramatically. SMECs respond to this heightened demand by ...
The NeuroNode is a sensor which offers the combined power of EMG and 3D spatial control, allowing users to choose muscle control or movement control to operate our NeuroNode Trilogy systems all in one small, wearable device. ...
Working – Pheezee works by measuring patient’s muscle response to nerve’s stimulation of the muscle via EMG as well as other metrics like Range of Motion, Repetition counting etc. ...
In medicine, taking a holistic approach means treating the whole person - body, mind, spirit, and emotions - to achieve one’s optimal health and wellness. For example, if a patient comes in with a sharp, jabbing pain in his hand - a symptom of peripheral neuropathy - a holistic treatment plan may not only include pain relief medicine but also address underlying causes of pain. A holistic ...
Abstract Background Impaired neuromuscular control and degeneration of the multifidus muscle have been linked to the development of refractory chronic low back pain (CLBP). ...
The results indicate that it is possible to classify six primary grips important in activities of daily living using FMG with an accuracy of above 70% in the residual limb. ...
Summary Due to their anatomical positioning, contraction of the deep abdominal muscles is often difficult to feel and therefore for patients to master. However, they are actively involved in spinal (or lumbar spine) stabilisation, and also in several biological processes [1]. ...
In patients with pulmonary obstruction, after 4 weeks of treatment, the patient's diaphragm muscle activity increased to varying degrees, pulmonary function indicators such as maximum minute ventilation and arterial oxygen pressure were significantly improved. ...
In addition, given that sEMG is measuring the electrical activity of muscles, its signal-to-noise ratio is sensitive to the positioning of electrodes as well as the skin impedance (Merletti et al., 2001), which can be affected by the presence of hair, sweat, and skin creams. Mechanomyography (MMG) is a complimentary sensing technology, which involves transducing ...
