The Role And Indications Of Electromyographic Biofeedback Device
The electromyographic biofeedback device is a medical device based on the electromyographic biofeedback mechanism combined with a certain intensity of low-frequency pulses to electrically stimulate muscles, causing muscle tension or relaxation, training and improving muscle function, and helping patients recover normal muscle movement function. So, let's learn about the role and indications of the electromyographic biofeedback device together!
The electromyographic biofeedback device can collect surface electromyographic signals from patients for analysis and feedback training, and provide electrical stimulation to the patient's muscles to assist in the diagnosis and recovery of muscle dysfunction. The electromyographic biofeedback device can enable patients to consciously control their physiological activities, achieve the goal of regulating body function and preventing diseases, and is a biofeedback therapy.
Biofeedback therapy is a new type of psychological treatment method that utilizes modern physiological scientific instruments to provide self feedback on physiological or pathological information within the human body. After receiving special training, patients undergo conscious "thought control" and psychological training to eliminate pathological processes and restore physical and mental health.
The electromyographic biofeedback device attaches an electrode pad to the surface of the patient's muscles, transmitting normal electromyographic signals to the affected side. It has the advantages of safety, greenness, non-invasive, high efficacy, high comfort, and fast effectiveness.
According to the patient's selection of the appropriate treatment site, the electrode of the electromyographic biofeedback device is attached to the muscle belly position with high muscle tone. The patient observes the instrument display screen, and the therapist guides the patient's subjective consciousness to strive to relax the muscles and reduce the muscle tone of the treatment site. Commonly used during the spasmodic phase after stroke, such as high upper limb and lower limb muscle tone, palliative treatment is used to achieve normal muscle tone.
Strengthening electromyographic biofeedback: By spontaneously improving the function of the affected side muscles, preventing atrophy, stimulating nerves, and restoring their function. Commonly used for sequelae such as muscle numbness, decreased muscle tone, and decreased muscle strength after stroke, such as sagging arms and feet, subluxation of the shoulder joint, and difficulty swallowing. Both can improve muscle function by improving the affected side muscles.
Collaborative electromyographic biofeedback: Similarly, based on the patient's basic condition, select areas with muscle incompatibility and areas with abnormal movement patterns for treatment. Improve the control ability and posture stability of affected muscles through electromyographic biofeedback training. Commonly used in the recovery period of patients after cerebrovascular accidents and children with cerebral palsy.
