Table 5 Impact of contraction level on MUP amplitude in a new sample of healthy subjects.
From: Assessing motor deficits in compressive neuropathy using quantitative electromyography
Target Contraction level (%MVC) | Actual Contraction Level (%MVC) | Intensity (PPS) | MUP peak to peak amplitude (uV) | MUP duration (ms) |
|---|---|---|---|---|
10-15% | 12.5 (12.5-14.6) | 68 (40-95) | 363.6 (232.5-466.3) | 6.52 (5.33-8.12) |
40 | 42 (38.9-44.7) | 82 (73-137) | 474.3 (277.4-522.8) | 6.30 (5.24-8.19) |
