title: [Quantitative analysis of the electromyogram using triggered correlation].
abstract: A study has been made to determine the usefulness of triggered correlation as a method of automatic quantitative analysis of graphic representations of the somatic electric currents associated with muscular action. Although an electromyogram is neither a normally distributed nor a stationary random process, the method has been found to be suitable for clinical electromyography. The method is easy to use, with measuring values that may be used for diagnostic purposes being obtained within a few seconds. In the case of normal subjects and patients with neuromuscular diseases, parameters of triggered correlograms are compared with those of visuamanually analyzed or digitally averaged potentials of individual motor units.
