EMG data BIOPAC AcqKnowledge

EMG Solutions for Large and Small Muscle Data

AcqKnowledge® displays, records and analyzes EMG data from human and animal subjects from large and small muscle groups, including facial EMG for analyzing facial expressions and startle paradigms. The EMG signal can be recorded using surface EMG (sEMG), needle EMG, fine wire EMG, active electrodes, telemetry, and data logging techniques. Filtering options include both real-time and post acquisition filtering for optimal conditioning of the data. Automated analysis tools identify the root mean square, average rectified and integrated EMG signal to provide an estimation of force levels.

Bioimpedance and Cardiac Output with TREV—a User-friendly, Noninvasive Technique

Learn a technique—Trans-radial Electrical Bioimpedance Velocimetry (TREV)—that is more user-friendly and less invasive than the transthoracic method. TREV measures blood movement in the radial and ulnar arteries of the forearm via bioimpedance.
Topics Covered:
– Presentation and discussion of TREV
– Derived Indices Relevant to TREV
– Hardware setup
– Participant setup
– Recognizing good quality and bad quality data
– Demonstration with the grip anticipation test
– Review of results from other tests
