ALVAREZ FIALLO, Roger; SANTOS ANZORANDIA, Carlos y MEDINA HERRERA, Esther. Implementation of quantitative electromyography for studying neuromuscular diseases. Rev Cub Med Mil [online]. 2005, vol.34, n.1, pp. 0-0. ISSN 1561-3046.
In this research, the methods of analysis of quantitative electromyography, in particular the methods of Buchthal's manual processing, the decomposition of the electromyographic signal, the turns-amplitude analysis and the spectral analysis to obtain the normative values of two reference muscles, the brachial biceps and the anterior tibial, were implemented in order to use them later in medical practice to study neuromuscular diseases. A cross-sectional study of 50 controls aged 25-55, 20 females and 30 males, with an average age of 38.52 years old, was conducted. 12 000 samples were taken in all. It was concluded that the method analysis of decomposition of the electromyographic signal used is more feasible to be used in medical practice than Buchthal's manual method due to its efficiency and celerity. The normative values of the brachial biceps and anterior tibial muscles were obtained for the studies of quantitative electromyography
