INTRODUCTION
• Electromyogram (EMG) is a technique for evaluating and recording the activation signal of muscles.
• EMG is performed by an electromyograph, which records an electromyogram.
• Electromyograph detects the electrical potential generated by muscle cells when these cells contract and relax.

ELECTRICAL CHARACTERITICS
• The electrical source is the muscle membrane potential of about -70mV.
• Measured EMG potentials range between < 50 μV up to 20 to 30 mV, depending on the muscle under observation.
• Typical repetition rate of muscle unit firing is about 7-20 Hz.
• Damage to motor units can be expected at ranges between 450 and 780 mV

EMG PROCEDURE
• Clean the site of application of electrode;
• Insert needle/place surface electrodes at muscle belly;
• Record muscle activity at rest;
• Record muscle activity upon voluntary contraction of the muscle.

BIOMECHANICSBIOMECHANICS
• Biomechanics is the research and analysis of the mechanics of living organisms.
• KINEMATICS – The branch of Biomechanics concerned with describing the motion of bodies.
• KINETICS- The branch of biomechanics concerned with explaining the causes of body motions.

KINEMATICS DATA ANALYSIS• Aim: to identify the variability in reaching movement in
normal and stroke individuals. • Outcome Variable: Elbow Joint Angle.• Magnitude of variability was analyzed with Std.
Deviation.• Structure of variability in elbow angles was computed
via IE using MATLAB. H = Log2 (1/Pi) Pi = probability that a given event will occur. Pi α1/H. • Higher values of IE suggest - more uncertainty.• Lower values of IE suggest- less uncertainty
(increased stability). of

CONCLUSION
• Variability/Uncertainity in movement is higher in normals as compared to individuals with Stroke.
• This variability could be correlated with adaptability in movement which is decreased upon nervous system damage in Stroke.
• Large data is required to generalize these results.
