Abstract(in English) Fast Fourier transformation (FFT) has been used as the common way to analyze muscle fatigue using surface electromyogram(EMG). However, it is known to be difficult to measure muscle fatigue of a low loading movement since a low grade fatigue is hard to detect. In order to improve detection capacity, we paid attention to pressurizing. Pressurizing during movement causes the mild congestion of blood flow as well as the increase of lactic acid in the muscular tissue. In this study, we analyzed EMG during hand writing in state of pressurizing of a shoulder joint. As a result, it is suggested that pressurizing is effective for measuring muscle fatigue.
