Current evidence suggests that significant morphological changes occur in nerve-muscle connections caudal to spinal cord injury (SCI). To determine whether neuromuscular junction (NMJ) function is compromised after SCI, we investigated the contribution of NMJ failure to hindlimb muscle fatigue in control and spinalized adult rats. Repetitive supramaximal nerve stimulation was applied to two muscle-nerve preparations: medial gastrocnemius (MG)-tibial and tibialis anterior (TA)-peroneal. NMJ transmission failure was evident in control and SCI animals after repetitive stimulation. At 2 wk post-SCI, NMJ transmission failure was greater in SCI animals compared with controls, but the difference was not significant ( P = 0.205 for the MG and P = 0.053 for the TA). At 6 wk post-SCI, there was a significant but small difference in NMJ transmission failure for the TA between control and spinal animals. These results demonstrate that, although there may be a mild decrement in NMJ function, NMJ transmission remains largely intact for supramaximal nerve stimulation.

Abstract:Motor functions can be hindered in consequence to a stroke or a spinal cord injury. This often results in partial paralyses of the upper limb. The effectiveness of rehabilitation therapy can be improved by the use of rehabilitation robotics and Functional Electrical Stimulation (FES). We consider a hybrid arm weight support combining both. In order to compensate the effect of FES-induced muscle fatigue, we introduce a method to substitute the decreasing level of FES support by cable-driven robotics. We evaluated the approach in a trial with one healthy subject performing repetitive arm lifting. The controller automatically adapted the support and thus no increase in user generated volitional effort was observed when FES induced muscle fatigue occured.

AbstractThis study investigates whether mechanomyography (MMG) produced from contracting muscles as a measure of their performance could be a proxy of muscle fatigue during a sustained functional electrical stimulation (FES)-supported standing-to-failure task. Bilateral FES-evoked contractions of quadriceps and glutei muscles, of four adults with motor-complete spinal cord injury (SCI), were used to maintain upright stance using two different FES frequencies: high frequency (HF – 35 Hz) and low frequency (LF – 20 Hz). The time at 30° knee angle reduction was taken as the point of critical “fatigue failure”, while the generated MMG characteristics were used to track the pattern of force development during stance. Quadriceps fatigue, which was primarily responsible for the knee buckle, was characterized using MMG-root mean square (RMS) amplitude. A double exponential decay model fitted the MMG fatigue data with good accuracy [R2 = 0.85–0.99; root mean square error (RMSE) = 2.12–8.10] implying changes in the mechanical activity performance of the muscle’s motor units. Although the standing duration was generally longer for the LF strategy (31–246 s), except in one participant, when compared to the HF strategy, such differences were not significant (p > 0.05) but suggested a faster muscle fatigue onset during HF stimulation. As MMG could discriminate between different stimulation frequencies, we speculate that this signal can quantify muscle fatigue characteristics during prolonged FES applications.
