Electrical Activities of Muscles Similar to that of nerve fibers Except that magnitude of potentials and
time duration are different Conduction velocities are less (muscle
fibers are smaller in length, so not a big issue)
Nerve fibers opens in muscles fibers through a junction

Voluntary Muscle System (Normal Muscles-under our conscious control)
Automatic Muscle System (Smooth Muscles-not under our conscious control)

Voluntary (under willful action of brain) Not good for diagnosis of muscle
disorders which has to be diagnosed early Evoked (on artificial stimulation)
![Page 13: In The Name of Allah The Most Beneficent The Most Merciful](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022070423/5681667c550346895dda22e6/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
Measurement of Potetial Difference How do we get a potential difference
between two points outside a muscle fiber (or a nerve fiber??)
When Fully Polarized!! Partially Depolarized!! Fully Depolarized!!
![Page 14: In The Name of Allah The Most Beneficent The Most Merciful](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022070423/5681667c550346895dda22e6/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
When there is partially depolarization, ionic current start flowing which gives rise to voltage
In case of fully polarized or fully depolarized, no current flows and hence we don’t get any voltage out
![Page 15: In The Name of Allah The Most Beneficent The Most Merciful](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022070423/5681667c550346895dda22e6/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
Voluntary EMG Measurement Using Skin Surface electrodes Using Needle electrodes
Monopolar Bipolar
![Page 16: In The Name of Allah The Most Beneficent The Most Merciful](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022070423/5681667c550346895dda22e6/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
Skin Surface Electrodes Compound or composite of Muscle Action Potential
from individual muscle fibers is recorded Sometime called Interference Pattern Contribution from muscle fibers will depend on the
closeness and proximity to the electrodes We cannot make out much on the origin of these
signals We can only use it to find gross muscular disorders
Which can already be felt by muscle weakness and can be visually seen as wasted muscle
![Page 17: In The Name of Allah The Most Beneficent The Most Merciful](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022070423/5681667c550346895dda22e6/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
Skin Surface Electrodes Surface electrodes are not very much used for
the diagnosis of muscle disorders They are used majorly for evoked potential
study in Nerve Conduction Velocity (NCV)
measurement Bio feedback study or exercise (kind of
mitigation or relaxing) Another application is Bio-feedback for stroke
recovery
![Page 18: In The Name of Allah The Most Beneficent The Most Merciful](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022070423/5681667c550346895dda22e6/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
Needle Electrodes Monopolar Similar to a coaxial We use instrumentation (differential)
amplifiers Requires 3 probes Active, Reference, Common Common is taken from a skin surface
electrode
![Page 19: In The Name of Allah The Most Beneficent The Most Merciful](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022070423/5681667c550346895dda22e6/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)
Needle Electrodes Bipolar In contrast to monopolar electrodes,
bipolar have two electrodes inside and one outside
Instrument amplifiers are used All three probes are taken from the
bipolar needle electrode itself Mostly used for research purpose
![Page 20: In The Name of Allah The Most Beneficent The Most Merciful](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022070423/5681667c550346895dda22e6/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)
Needle EMG Used for diagnosis of muscle disorders Helps in localizing a focus of disorder
As injecting a pin (needle) inside skin is painful and to diagnose properly multiple points are needed, the whole process becomes very painful
To reduce pain, insertion points are reduced and in each points the angle of pin is changed without bringing needle outside the skin (mostly 3 angles)
![Page 21: In The Name of Allah The Most Beneficent The Most Merciful](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022070423/5681667c550346895dda22e6/html5/thumbnails/21.jpg)
Analysis of EMG Analysis is done empirically by doctors
(clinical experiences) Looks for EMG patterns when the needle
is being inserted Listens to the sound produced by
feeding the muscle signal into a loud speaker
Also looks at the pattern and listens to the sound on mild voluntary contraction
![Page 22: In The Name of Allah The Most Beneficent The Most Merciful](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022070423/5681667c550346895dda22e6/html5/thumbnails/22.jpg)
Analysis of EMG Signal Processing in EMG For automated diagnosis, pattern
recognition techniques are being investigated
Old instruments used to have integrators
![Page 23: In The Name of Allah The Most Beneficent The Most Merciful](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022070423/5681667c550346895dda22e6/html5/thumbnails/23.jpg)
Analysis of EMG Simple Block Diagram of EMG
EMG Amplifiers Filter Display Integrator (signal processing unit) Audio amplifier

Measurement of NCV Using evoked potential Through artificial stimulation of nerve For example by giving a voltage of 100
volts for very short time approximately 2 msec, hand movements must be observed
--fig. evoking an action potential using surface electrodes
![Page 25: In The Name of Allah The Most Beneficent The Most Merciful](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022070423/5681667c550346895dda22e6/html5/thumbnails/25.jpg)
Nothing happens under anode (+ve electrode)
Reversal of transmembrane potential occurs under cathode (-ve electrode)
This causes generation of an action potential
Generated action potential travels along the nerves
![Page 26: In The Name of Allah The Most Beneficent The Most Merciful](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022070423/5681667c550346895dda22e6/html5/thumbnails/26.jpg)
Similar to a sprint race where a stopwatch is pressed on when runner starts and time is recorded untill he reaches the finish line and velocity is calculated from the distance travelled and time, NCV is recoded by measuring the time for nerve action potential to travel a distance “d” from stimulation point to recording point
![Page 27: In The Name of Allah The Most Beneficent The Most Merciful](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022070423/5681667c550346895dda22e6/html5/thumbnails/27.jpg)
Sensory NCV Nerve stimulator applies stimulation
through ring electrodes at fingers Median Nerve contains both sensory
and motor nerves Recording site is selected near middle of
arm
![Page 28: In The Name of Allah The Most Beneficent The Most Merciful](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022070423/5681667c550346895dda22e6/html5/thumbnails/28.jpg)
Conventions Cathode of the stimulation electrodes is kept
near the recording side, so that action potential is not perturbed by anode)
Recording electrode which is towards the stimulation side is connected to the inverting input of the amplifier
Common electrode is placed ideally at an equidistant point from both electrodes (to have min common mode voltage)
![Page 29: In The Name of Allah The Most Beneficent The Most Merciful](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022070423/5681667c550346895dda22e6/html5/thumbnails/29.jpg)
--fig. stimulation pulse --fig. recording side, stimulation artifacts
and compounded action potential Latency of the pulse is recorded SNVC=d/∆t
![Page 30: In The Name of Allah The Most Beneficent The Most Merciful](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022070423/5681667c550346895dda22e6/html5/thumbnails/30.jpg)
Motor NCV In contrast to SNCV measurement, MNCV
measurement involves stimulating at two sites and recording at one
For median nerve Stimulation sites
Wrist Elbow
Recording site Thenar Muscle
![Page 31: In The Name of Allah The Most Beneficent The Most Merciful](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022070423/5681667c550346895dda22e6/html5/thumbnails/31.jpg)
Why we stimulate on two sites? Neuromuscular junction has unknown delay Record latencies of proximal and distal
stimulation sites individually (let t1 and t2 be the latencies of both respectively)
Distance between both stimulation sites is taken
--fig. MNVC signals MNCV=d/(t2-t1)
![Page 32: In The Name of Allah The Most Beneficent The Most Merciful](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022070423/5681667c550346895dda22e6/html5/thumbnails/32.jpg)
Diagnosis and Diseases If either SNCV or MNCV is significantly
less then normal values? Is the distal latency prolonged?
