Decomposition-enhanced spike-triggered averaging (DE-STA) was applied to the vastus medialis muscle to examine size distributions of surface-detected motor unit action potentials (S-MUAPs) at various force levels. Using DE-STA, 15-20 S-MUAPs were identified during 5%, 10%, 20%, and 30% of maximum vo

Electromyographic signals detected from the quadriceps femoris during various constant force contractions were decomposed to identify individual motor unit discharges and mean firing rates (FRs). Subject and group mean FRs were calculated for each force level. Mean FR values and FR variability incre
Reproducibility of the spike-triggered averaging technique of motor unit estimation (MUE) was assessed in biceps-brachialis muscle in 10 normal subjects and 15 subjects with amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS). MUE was calculated by dividing the compound muscle action potential by the mean amplitude
