Outline of Final Research Achievements

We conducted following studies as the clinical application of the Clustering Index method, a non-invasive analysis method of surface EMG. 1) We obtained data at the tibialis anterior muscle from 29 neurogenic and 39 myopathic subjects and determined the appropriate window width. The sensitivity of 97% in neurogenic and 72% in myopathic subjects was achieved using this window width. 2) We applied CI method to children and tried to differentiate 16 neurogenic and 29 myopathic children. Certain utility was documented although the sensitivity was not so good as in adults. 3) We investigated new parameters, Size Index and revised Size Index, in quantitative analysis of the motor unit potential in needle EMG. 4) We compared the sensitivity between CI method and needle EMG. 5) We conducted other related investigations regarding various disorders in which CI method may be applicable, such as carpal tunnel syndrome, amyotrophic lateral sclerosis, or Guillan-Barre syndrome.
