Optimal protocol for muscle fiber conduction velocity estimation

Muscle fiber conduction velocity (MFCV) is now classically encountered in works dealing with neuromuscular assessment. Unfortunately MFCV estimation often presents a large bias essentially due to non-propagated EMG components. This work proposes some ways to optimize the recording methodology in order to limit this drawback. This optimization is simultaneously realized by a specific electrode configuration and an optimal recording location. The results illustrate how the method can be considered as optimal
