Electromyographic (EMG) and Mechanomyographic (MMG) Comparison (EMG-MMG)

September 14, 2016 updated by: University Hospital, Grenoble

Comparison of Electromyographic With Mechanomyographic Signals of Rectus Abdominis

The purpose of this study is to assess the delay between the detection (by mechanomyography-MMG) of rectus abdominis contraction and the detection of cough in cough effort.

Cohorts and Interventions

Group / Cohort
Intervention / Treatment
accelerometric device

This biomedical research consists specifically in the simultaneous acquisition of:

  • EMG and MMG Signals of rectus abdominis of the abdomen,
  • Respiratory flow,
  • An electrocardiogram (ECG).

These acquisitions will be conducted on 16 healthy volunteers according to a standardized protocol, at rest and during voluntary cough and various physical exercises often resulting in urinary leakage in the incontinent person.

What is the study measuring?

Primary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Time Frame
Delay between the detection by mechanomyography (MMG) of rectus abdominis contraction and the detection of cough in cough effort
Time Frame: 2 hours
2 hours

Secondary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Time Frame
Lower and upper spectral band frequencies values for which the majority of the MMG signal is present, thresholds for detection of rectus abdominis contraction by mechanical myography
Time Frame: 2 hours
