Title
Design of a Portable Electromyography Device for Back Herniated Patients
Abstract
Up to 80 percent of people are affected by back herniation or another low-back disease in their life. Some studies have proven that there is a significant relation between paraspinal muscles and back herniation. In this study, a portable surface electromyography device was designed for measuring the muscular activity of paraspinal muscles from back herniated patients. The device's gain value is adjusted to 1000, it includes a band-pass filter and a 50 Hz notch filter to eliminate power source interference noise and other electrically noises. The device designed as an electrically isolated single channel, and it is linked to Matlab software via the serial port of Personal Computer.
