[Electrophysiological study on skeletal muscle by repetitive pulse stimulus].
This experimental study was designed to unravel the relationship between muscle tension and its electrophysiological property. The experiments on repetitive pulse stimulus in different current intensity to rabbit's motor nerve were performed in different pulse frequency by electromyography which applied electrical pulses and excited the tibial nerve, and by Instron 5544 machine which measured muscle tensions. The experimental data revealed that the tension force varied with the stimulus frequency in a quasi-parabolic relation, while it seemingly increased little with the stimulus intensity.
