The paper describes a reliable and valid Portable Exercise Monitoring sysetm developed using TI eZ430-Chronos watch, which can control the exercise intensity through audio stimulation in order to increase the Cardiovascular fitness strengthening.
The aim of this study was to examine the effect of oral glucose supplementation on the surface electromyographic (sEMG) signal recorded during a dynamic, fatiguing exercise protocol. Five healthy subjects participated in the study. Blood glucose concentration and sEMG signals from five upper leg muscles were recorded during a cycling exercise performed at 70% VO2peak until task failure, on two separate...
Several modes of mechanical ventilation are clinically available. The differences among them in terms of efficacy and patient outcomes are not clear yet. Testing and comparison of mechanical ventilation modes via human or animal trials is a very challenging and costly process. In this paper, we present the patient emulator (PE), a novel system that can be used as a platform for in-silico testing of...
The onset of muscle contraction has been an important element in the understanding of human motor control system as well as in the development of medical devices. This task is problematic in the study of spasticity using surface Electromyography (sEMG). In fact, spasticity is characterized by involuntary muscle contractions that can be seen as both, a non-stationary background if they are weak or...
