Method For Decomposing An Electromyogram Into Individual Motor Unit Action Potentials

US Patent:
4611284, Sep 9, 1986
Filed:
Sep 9, 1983
Appl. No.:
6/531209
Inventors:
Kevin C. McGill - Palo Alto CA
Leslie J. Dorfman - Stanford CA
Assignee:
The Board of Trustees of the Leland Stanford, Jr. University - Palo Alto CA
International Classification:
G06F 1542, A61B 504
US Classification:
364417
Abstract:
An automated method of decomposing an electromyogram for identifying and measuring individual motor-unit action potentials. An electromyogram interference pattern is sampled at its Nyquist rate and digitally filtered to accentuate the rapidly rising spike components. The spikes are classified by template matching, using their canonically registered discrete Fourier transforms to align and compare them. The classifications are verified by analysis of interspike intervals. The motor-unit action potentials are then averaged from the unfiltered interference pattern using the identified spikes as triggers.

Method For Real-Time Detection And Identification Of Neuroelectric Signals

US Patent:
4603703, Aug 5, 1986
Filed:
Apr 13, 1984
Appl. No.:
6/599889
Inventors:
Kevin C. McGill - Palo Alto CA
Leslie J. Dorfman - Stanford CA
Assignee:
The Board of Trustees of the Leland Stanford Junior University - Stanford CA
International Classification:
A61B 504
US Classification:
128731
Abstract:
Neuroelectric signals are detected and processed by digital filtering to detect, classify and determine the relative proportions of the different types of signals eminating from muscle, nerve or brain tissue.
