A new bipolar electrode for electromyography

Basmajian, J. V., Stecko, G.·1962·Journal of Applied Physiology

Abstract

I NTRAMUSCULAR ELECTRODES for electromyography must com-bine a maximum of reliability with a minimum of discomfort, and a number of useful ones have been developed and used in the past (I). The most widely used have been bipolar concen-tric needle electrodes of the type first proposed by Adrian and Bronk (2). Recently, as electromyographic studies of normal similar applications.) The electrode being as fine as a human hair, one may use as the guide the very smallest gauges of hypodermic needle obtainable. The steps for making an electrode, illustrated in Fig. I, are as follows. I) A double strand of the nylon-coated wire is passed through the shaft of a hypodermic needle. A small loop strand of Nylon Distal ends insulation Sta,$$erad distal ends foldczd- OVQYZ

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
