Abstract

Muscle activity generates both physiological electrical and mechanical signals, the monitoring of which is crucial in rehabilitation and sports medicine, underpinning effective diagnosis, treatment, and rehabilitation processes. Advances in flexible electronics enable force myography (FMG) and surface electromyography (sEMG) signals for muscle activation monitoring, but the multi-sensor integration and physiological mechanisms underlying FMG signals remain poorly studied, limiting the accuracy of muscle function assessments and underutilizes the high sensitivity of the flexible sensors. This study introduces a novel thin-film iontronic force-electromyography (iFEMG) sensor, integrating a high-sensitivity iontronic pressure sensor and sEMG electrodes for high-fidelity muscle physiological signal acquisition. Based on ultrasound imaging and statistical analysis, the relationship between muscle force, muscle geometric features, and FMG signals is established, providing evidence for elucidating the physiological mechanisms of FMG signals. Based on these findings, an effective and highly adaptable method is proposed for precise muscle force prediction. The iFEMG system is successfully applied to assess motor nerve and muscle function in patients, demonstrating its clinical utility. This system holds significant potential for broader applications, such as rehabilitation training and early diagnosis of musculoskeletal disorders, paving the way for advanced personalized healthcare solutions.

摘要

肌肉活动会产生生理电信号和机械信号,对这些信号的监测在康复医学和运动医学中至关重要,是有效诊断、治疗和康复过程的基础。柔性电子技术的进步使得通过力肌电图(FMG)和表面肌电图(sEMG)信号来监测肌肉激活成为可能,但是FMG信号的多传感器集成以及其潜在的生理机制仍未得到充分研究,这限制了肌肉功能评估的准确性,并且未能充分利用柔性传感器的高灵敏度。本研究介绍了一种新型的薄膜离子型力肌电图(iFEMG)传感器,它集成了高灵敏度离子型压力传感器和sEMG电极,用于高保真地采集肌肉生理信号。基于超声成像和统计分析,建立了肌肉力量、肌肉几何特征与FMG信号之间的关系,为阐明FMG信号的生理机制提供了证据。基于这些发现,提出了一种有效且高度适应性强的方法用于精确预测肌肉力量。iFEMG系统成功应用于评估患者的运动神经和肌肉功能,证明了其临床实用性。该系统在更广泛的应用中具有巨大潜力,如康复训练和肌肉骨骼疾病的早期诊断,为先进的个性化医疗解决方案铺平了道路。
