In this study, we investigated the use of empirical mode decomposition (EMD)-based features extracted from electrocardiogram (ECG) RR interval signals to differentiate between different levels cardiovascular autonomic neuropathy (CAN) in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). This study involved 60 participants divided into three groups: no CAN, subclinical and established CAN. Six EMD (area analytic signal representation—ASRarea; area ellipse evaluated second-order difference...
High Density Surface Electromyography (HD-sEMG) is a non-invasive technique that allows measurement of the electrical activity with bidimensional array electrodes. Besides analysis in time domain, it possible to represent these signals topographic view enabling investigation single motor unit properties, as well quantifying muscle fibre conduction velocity. Despite complexity acquisition systems for electromyographic signals, availability integrated circuits specific applications, especially...
Despite nerve conduction study (NCS) being an established procedure in the evaluation of neuromuscular disorders, its utility has been restrained by commercially available products or approaches presented literature that are either costly, physically large, dependent on specialised medical personnel to operate targeted specific conditions, evaluating only one two nerves. Therefore, objective this work was develop a point‐of‐care device for NCS can be used evaluate several nerves, yet is...
Diabetic peripheral neuropathy (DPN) is associated with loss of motor units (MUs), which can cause changes in the activation pattern muscle fibres. This study investigated using high-density surface electromyography (HD-sEMG) signals from subjects type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) and DPN. Thirty-five adults participated study: 12 healthy (HV), patients T2DM without DPN (No-DPN) 11 (DPN). HD-sEMG were recorded tibialis anterior during an isometric contraction ankle dorsiflexion at 50% maximum...

Extracting information from the peripheral nervous system with implantable devices remains a significant challenge that limits advancement of closed-loop neural prostheses. Linear electrode arrays can record signals both temporal and spatial selectivity, velocity selective recording using delay-and-add algorithm enable classification based on fibre type. The maximum likelihood estimation method also measures is frequently used in electromyography but has never been applied to...
