Publication Open Access Motor unit action potential duration, II: a new automatic measurement method based on the wavelet transform(Lippincott, Williams & Wilkins, 2007) RodrĆguez CarreƱo, Ignacio; Gila Useros, Luis; Malanda Trigueros, Armando; GarcĆa Gurtubay, Ignacio; Mallor GimĆ©nez, FermĆn; GĆ³mez Elvira, Sagrario; RodrĆguez Falces, Javier; Navallas Irujo, Javier; IngenierĆa ElĆ©ctrica y ElectrĆ³nica; EstadĆstica e InvestigaciĆ³n Operativa; Ingeniaritza Elektrikoa eta Elektronikoa; Estatistika eta Ikerketa OperatiboaTo present and evaluate a new algorithm, based on the wavelet transform, for the automatic measurement of motor unit action potential (MUAP) duration. A total of 240 MUAPs were studied. The waveform of each MUAP was wavelet-transformed, and the start and end points were estimated by regarding the maxima and minima points in a particular scale of the wavelet transform. The results of the new method were compared with the gold standard of duration marker positions obtained by manual measurement. The new method was also compared with a conventional algorithm, which we had found to be best in a previous comparative study. To evaluate the new method against manual measurements, the dispersion of automatic and manual duration markers were analyzed in a set of 19 repeatedly recorded MUAPs. The differences between the new algorithmās marker positions and the gold standard of duration marker positions were smaller than those observed with the conventional method. The dispersion of the new algorithmās marker positions was slightly less than that of the manual one. Our new method for automatic measurement of MUAP duration is more accurate than other available algorithms and more consistent than manual measurements.Publication Open Access MĆ©todos de procesamiento y anĆ”lisis de seƱales electromiogrĆ”ficas(Gobierno de Navarra, 2009) Gila Useros, Luis; Malanda Trigueros, Armando; RodrĆguez CarreƱo, Ignacio; RodrĆguez Falces, Javier; Navallas Irujo, Javier; IngenierĆa ElĆ©ctrica y ElectrĆ³nica; Ingeniaritza Elektrikoa eta ElektronikoaLa electromiografĆa clĆnica es una metodologĆa de registro y anĆ”lisis de la actividad bioelĆ©ctrica del mĆŗsculo esquelĆ©tico orientada al diagnĆ³stico de las enfermedades neuromusculares. Las posibilidades de aplicaciĆ³n y el rendimiento diagnĆ³stico de la electromiografĆa han evolucionado paralelamente al conocimiento de las propiedades de la energĆa elĆ©ctrica y al desarrollo de la tecnologĆa elĆ©ctrica y electrĆ³nica. A mediados del siglo XX se introdujo el primer equipo comercial de electromiografĆa para uso mĆ©dico basado en circuitos electrĆ³nicos analĆ³gicos. El desarrollo posterior de la tecnologĆa digital ha permitido disponer de sistemas controlados por microprocesadores cada vez mĆ”s fiables y potentes para captar, representar, almacenar, analizar y clasificar las seƱales mioelĆ©ctricas. Es esperable que el avance de las nuevas tecnologĆas de la informaciĆ³n y la comunicaciĆ³n pueda conducir en un futuro prĆ³ximo a la aplicaciĆ³n de desarrollos de inteligencia artificial que faciliten la clasificaciĆ³n automĆ”tica de seƱales asĆ como sistemas expertos de apoyo al diagnĆ³stico electromiogrĆ”fico.Publication Open Access Motor unit action potential duration, I: variability of manual and automatic measurements(Lippincott, Williams & Wilkins, 2007) RodrĆguez CarreƱo, Ignacio; Gila Useros, Luis; Malanda Trigueros, Armando; GarcĆa Gurtubay, Ignacio; Mallor GimĆ©nez, FermĆn; GĆ³mez Elvira, Sagrario; RodrĆguez Falces, Javier; Navallas Irujo, Javier; IngenierĆa ElĆ©ctrica y ElectrĆ³nica; EstadĆstica e InvestigaciĆ³n Operativa; Ingeniaritza Elektrikoa eta Elektronikoa; Estatistika eta Ikerketa OperatiboaTo analyze the variability in manual measurements of motor unit action potential (MUAP) duration and to evaluate the effectiveness of well-known algorithms for automatic measurement. Two electromyographists carried out three independent duration measurements of a set of 240 MUAPs. The intraexaminer and interexaminer variabilities were analyzed by means of the Gage Reproducibility and Repeatability method. The mean of the three closest manually marked positions was considered the gold standard of the duration markers positions (GSP). The results of four wellknown automatic methods for estimating MUAP duration were compared with the GSP. Manual measurements of duration showed a lot of variability, with the combined intraoperator and interoperator variability greater than 30%. The greatest difference between manual positions was 11.2 ms. The mean differences between the GSP and those obtained with the four automatic methods ranged between 0.6 and 8.5 ms. Both manual and automatic measurements of MUAP duration show a high degree of variability. More precise methods are needed to improve the accuracy and reliability of the estimates of this parameter.
