Description
This Muscle Sensor EMG Module for Arduino Specially Designed For Microcontrollers will measure the filtered and rectified electrical activity of a muscle, depending the amount of activity in the selected muscle.
Electromyography (EMG) is a diagnostic procedure that evaluates the health condition of muscles and the nerve cells that control them. These nerve cells are known as motor neurons. They transmit electrical signals that cause muscles to contract and relax.
An abnormal EMG result means there is a problem in an area of muscle activity—turning on and off, when it is active, how much it is active, if it is more or less active, and fatigue. This can offer a clue in diagnosing various nerve and muscle conditions. Learn more in 10 Conditions Diagnosed With an EMG.
Some people ask “is an EMG test painful?” There are actually two parts to EMG testing and both may result in some discomfort, but they are usually well tolerated without any need for pain medication. In most cases, your doctor will perform both elements, but in some situations, only one or the other may be done.
