What Is EMG Biofeedback?

The full name of biostimulation feedback instrument is MT biostimulation feedback system (MyoTrac). It is the latest generation of multi-functional diagnostic and treatment equipment launched by Thought Company in Canada for hospital rehabilitation and neurology. This system organically combines the functions of surface electromyography analysis, neuromuscular electrical stimulation, electromyography triggered electrical stimulation, biological feedback, and incontinence treatment, etc., and provides a high-level comprehensive solution.

Biostimulator

1. chronic constipation 2. anal fall

3. Chronic constipation

4. Atrophic muscle atrophy caused by prolonged bed rest and braking

5. Second incontinence

6. Myogenic motor dysfunction

7. Motor Dysfunction Caused by Peripheral Nervous System Lesions

8. Motor dysfunction due to central nervous system damage (especially rehabilitation of motor function after stroke)

Acute purulent inflammation

Acute eczema

Bleeding tendency

4. Severe heart disease or pacemaker

5. Patients who are allergic to DC

Multimedia EMG Biofeedback Therapy

How it works: Patients use their own will (the ability to contract and control muscles) to control computer animation

Means: six categories, more than 30 kinds of optional animation, synchronized music feedback

Features: easy to stick to, interesting, clear goals, real-time effects

Muscle strengthening training: you can train with muscle strength above level 2

Muscle relaxation training: prevent spasms, treat spasms, and have more psychological relaxation

Muscle endurance training; coordination training: (the healthy side guides the affected side to train)

Precision activity training: (grip, occupational therapy training)

Template guided training: (for pelvic floor rehabilitation)

Myoelectric trigger

Threshold (trigger point): Clinician sets training targets, or sets training targets automatically

Surface EMG signal: the manifestation of patient's active contraction consciousness

Myoelectric triggering electrical stimulation: Integrating physician goals with patient awareness

The perfect combination of biofeedback and functional electrical stimulation

When the patient tries to do an action, they will send their own surface electromyography signal (SEMG). When the signal reaches or exceeds the set threshold, MyoTrac will send electrical stimulation to help the patient complete the action. After repeated training, patients are encouraged to increase their awareness of muscle contraction, in order to trigger further muscle stimulation, provide a large number of input impulses to the central nervous system, and gradually restore the control of paralyzed muscles to the central brain.

Myoelectric trigger electrical stimulation is based on biological feedback, cognitive learning theory, and exercise relearning therapy as the theoretical basis. Through repeated treatment, it helps patients to re-establish a new brain command function, helps patients strengthen muscle strength, and improves their quality of life.

Functional neuromuscular electrical stimulation

Programmatic design, divided into 6 parts, more than 100 professional clinical application schemes, more targeted, more scientific, and safer Constant current source electrical stimulation (adjustable stimulation frequency, pulse width, current intensity) through MyoTrac flexible settings , Stimulation / interval time, etc.), can perform neuromuscular electrical stimulation on patients with different conditions. Prevent muscle atrophy, promote muscle strength, relieve muscle spasm, promote blood circulation, etc., to maintain normal muscle metabolism, and avoid muscle atrophy during neural network reconstruction.

Functional neuromuscular electrical stimulation

Help patients to perform early functional exercises, prevent muscle atrophy, perform early functional exercises, and build patients' confidence in rehabilitation. Neurology is particularly suitable for early bedside rehabilitation treatment. The system operates automatically and does not occupy space, manpower and other resources.

Two-channel EMG trigger electrical stimulation

The true active training mode provides 4 different active training modes, and active rehabilitation training can be performed for patients at different stages.

Biofeedback training

Muscle relaxation training, muscle strengthening training, muscle synergy training, muscle endurance training, bilateral balance coordination training

Incontinence treatment (optional)

It can be used for stroke and incontinence caused by paraplegia, and can also be used for the treatment of stress, urgency and mixed urinary incontinence.

Muscle tension assessment

The system has a built-in muscle and muscle tension evaluation module, which can understand the patient's immediate rehabilitation information anytime, anywhere. In line with the requirements of evidence-based medicine, assessment plus treatment is the mainstream international treatment model.

Data removable storage

The standard 1G CF removable memory card can record up to 27 hours of treatment data. A card reader is standard, and reports can be printed.

Data can be played back stand-alone

After the data is saved, it can be replayed, and the changes of the patient's electromyogram during the treatment and training process can be carefully analyzed and evaluated, making the evaluation more comprehensive and detailed.
