(EMG) isthe recording of the electrical activity of skeletal musclesand is among the easiest forms of electrophysiology to perform and analyze. ... EMG can also be used to measure muscle fatigue, as the dominant frequencies of activity in a particular EMG signal tend to shift lower as a ...
Right after DS delivered at the intensity of 600 μA (middle), a single maximal peak and a consistent bundle of lower and late potentials appear on lTA. These effects persist for about 1 min after the end of DS, as emphasized by the magnification below that corresponds to the shaded...
