VMG provides a convenient means for assessing rehabilitation progress following sports injuries such as ACL tears due to its ability to be utilized under conditions which reflect the multi-segment, closed-chain activities associated with functional activities.
That VMG provides both an absolute and reproducible assessment of muscle effort permits both right/left comparisons within an individual, as well as the opportunity to track rehabilitation progress over time where left/right comparisons are inappropriate or not possible.
Vibromyography (VMG) has distinct benefits over dynamometry in that VMG recordings reproducibly reflect absolute muscle effort up to 100% of maximum voluntary contraction. Correspondingly, VMG can be used to simultaneously evaluate individual muscles (e.g. antagonistic muscle pairs) either over time or to identify left/right differences. This application note addresses how VMG can be used to assess quadriceps rehabilitation progress in a young adult male following ACL reconstruction.
BIOPAC will show you how physiological data is seamlessly synchronized with eye tracking and stimulus presentation in one integrated solution. The talk will focus on optimizing setup, highlighting the benefits of a fully-integrated solution, and how to extract eye tracking and physiology metrics from key points, such as the cumulative average skin conductance level while a participant is focused on areas of interest.
What you will learn:
• Hardware setup
• Stimulus presentation creation
• Setting up Areas of Interest (AOI)
• Recording participant data
• Analysis and reporting
