Analysis of statistically significant indicators for the 4 types of surface electromyography

Abstract

Intensive neuromonitoring at the bedside of patients with severe traumatic brain injury, cerebral stroke, and any acute cerebral insufficiency is crucial for preventing secondary ischemic and hypoxic damage. Multiple authors estimate that traumatic brain injury (TBI) is the most common cause of death and severe disability in people under the age of 35. In addition, men are 2 to 3 times more likely to suffer from TBI than women. TBI can lead to a process of secondary damage that causes long-term neurological and neuropsychiatric consequences, which is a significant public health issue globally. Some studies have demonstrated differences between normal and abnormal muscle electrical activity associated with Parkinson's disease (PD). Some methods have been developed to use electromyography (EMG) as a tool to diagnose motor symptoms associated with PD, such as stiffness, gait disturbance, and tremor. Due to changes in muscle activity caused by a lack of dopamine in the central nervous system, the EMG signal in PD patients shows a different pattern than in a normal person. The use of surface and stimulation EMG directly at the bedside in the intensive care unit during the treatment of acute (TBI, stroke, etc.) and chronic cerebral insufficiency (CCI) of various etiologies, as well as intraoperatively during neurosurgical, otolaryngological, and other interventions, is urgent but difficult due to the use of modern equipment and the length of the examination. The use of surface and stimulation EMG directly at the bedside of the ambulance team in the case of CCI of various etiologies during neurosurgical, otorhinolaryngological, and other interventions is also urgent but difficult due to the use of modern equipment and the length of the examination.
