Electromyography of the forearm muscles during physical therapy tasks: evaluation and comparison of normalization methods

Year: 2025

Type: conference-paper

Abstract: Introduction: Physical therapists often experience work-related musculoskeletal disorders in the wrist and thumb [ref:1]. It is important to quantify the load on these structures using measurement technologies such as electromyography (EMG), which can be incorporated into the CUELA risk assessment [for full text, please go to the a.m. URL]
