Abstract

A new method of surface electromyography (EMG) is presented, for sampling the posterior crico-arytenoid, interarytenoid and crico-pharyngeal sphincter. The results obtained in normal volunteers are discussed and the indications for laryngeal electromyography (LEMG) outlined. It has the advantage of being non-invasive and safe, and can be done as an out-patient procedure with minimal discomfort to the patient, and unassociated complications. This has provided a new and fascinating field of investigation in neuromuscular disorders of the larynx. The same principles of surface EMG may also be applied to the muscles of the tongue, palate, pharynx . . . and surface EMG in the upper respiratory tract may become a valuable method of clinical investigation.

摘要

本文介绍了一种新的表面肌电图（EMG）方法，用于采集环杓后肌、杓间肌和环咽括约肌的肌电信号。文中讨论了在正常志愿者身上获得的结果，并概述了喉肌电图（LEMG）的适应证。该方法具有非侵入性和安全性的优点，可作为门诊检查进行，给患者带来的不适最小，且无相关并发症。这为喉部神经肌肉疾病的研究提供了一个全新且引人入胜的领域。表面肌电图的相同原理也可应用于舌肌、腭肌、咽肌……上呼吸道的表面肌电图可能会成为一种有价值的临床检查方法。
