Condition monitoring of parkinson pathological tremor for functional electrical stimulation control
No full textThe aim of this work is to identify the correlation of accelerometric and electromyographic signals and the difference between healthy patients (control group) and patients affected by Parkinson disease (PD) and essential tremor (ET). The vibrational phenomena studied in this work regards the forearm and hand vibration that are monitored by means of SEMG (surface electro-myographic) sensor and accelerometer sensor with the purpose to detect and recognize the dynamic properties of onset of pathological tremor in patients affected by (PD) and (ET). PD and ET present a typical characteristic vibration frequency between 3Hz and 12Hz, this property is monitored in out-patient tests. Two condition monitoring systems have been developed and deep described to monitor the tremor: the former system allows data monitoring with a portable lightweight microcontroller board powered with low voltage batteries (5Volt); and the latter is based on a CompactRio data acquisition system with a chassis controller module designed for data input, controlling and output generation, powered by 12 Volt battery. The CRio System provide an algorithm to generate functional electrical stimulation signals for control purpose. Experimental measurement data on healthy control subjects are presented. Data are analyzed, and results are presented
