Complex Network Analysis of Surface Electromyography Shows Impaired Global Structure of Chronic Stroke Survivors with Hemiparesis

To investigate the use of high-density surface electromyography (EMG) and complex network analysis to quantify upper extremity motor impairment in chronic stroke survivors with hemiparesis. EMG can provide insights into the residual neuro-muscular activity during attempted functional movement. Using network analysis, we can determine how different muscle regions interact to create complex motion and the associated deficits after stroke.
