Abstract:
OBJECTIVE:To explore the role of diaphgram fatigue in the death from hanging with bound upper limbs of rabbits.
METHODS:Rabbits were hanged with upper limbs bound, then the data of EMGdi were gathered
RESULTS:By analyzing power spectral of EMGdi in experiment, we compare the ratio change of H/L between pre-experiment and post-experiment. There is a significance decrease of the ratio of H/L, so it indicates that diaphgram fatigue does exist.
CONCLUSION:Diaphgram fatigue plays an important role in the death from hanging with limbs of rabbits bound.
