Abstract:
Objective To establish a new methodology of evaluating rehabilitation status of local muscle injured by measuring the impedance and phase information.Methods An evaluation method was set up,which take symmetrical parts of injured muscle as control group during the measurement.Impedance and phase values of injured muscle were extracted with local impedance measurement method before and after rehabilitation to evaluate muscle recovery.Results Injured muscle tissue impedance values decreased significantly.In the process of rehabilitation of injured muscle,the impedance and phase values of the injured muscles were gradually approaching that of healthy muscle,and then achieved basically the same as reference values after rehabilitation.Conclusions Local impedance measurement method may provide a new,non-invasive and convenient evaluation method for the recovery of injured muscle tissue,and it has good prospects for clinical application.
