AT 685 - Principles And Application of Kinesiological Emg

Institution:

University of Kentucky

Subject:

Description:

To introduce the student to the principles and application of kinesiologic electromyography (EMG). Kinesiological EMG research incorporates the study of human movement with direct assessment of the muscles involved with human motion. The primary aim for this course is to provide the student with background and practical knowledge of kinesiological EMG in order to be able to perform and critically analyze kinesiological EMG studies. Students will enhance their understanding of neuromuscular properties of skeletal musculature. Students will be exposed to the common procedures used to collect, analyze, and interpret both surface and indwelling kinesiological EMG research. Prereq: KHP 615 or comparable graduate level biomechanics course, the course can be taken concurrently. Approval of instructor.
