acquisition protocol
After positioning the sensors, connect them by means of the appropriate
connector to the corresponding preactivated probe.
Finally, attach the probe and the switch box with the hypo-allergenic
adhesive tape close to the same switches (i.e. close to the ankle when the
sensor have been placed on the foot sole) at all times taking care to leave
the patient the greatest degree of freedom of movement.
Finally, If the analysis protocol being used requires it, proceed to the
positioning of the Electrogoniometers.
Each EGN should be positioned straddling the joint with the two stiff
ends positioned on the sagittal plane, parallel to the axes of the two body
segments that make up the joint under investigation, securing them to the
patient’s skin using the plaster or hypoallergenic double-sided tape.
After positioning the sensors, connect them by means of the appropriate
connector to the corresponding preactivated probe.
Finally, attach the probe and the switch box with the hypo-allergenic
adhesive tape close to the sensor on the side where the connection cable
comes out.
Throughout the dressing procedure of the patient or at the end of it you
can use the receiving unit to check, using the oscilloscope of the “Gains”
function of the RU, the correct placement of the electrodes and control
that the acquisition gain of the EMG channels is properly set.
It’s possibile also to compare two channels at a time using the “Cross
check” function (see § “Guide to the use of the onboard software”).
