Comparison Between Manual and (Semi-)Automated Analyses of Esophageal Diaphragm Electromyography During Endurance Cycling in Patients With COPD

Background: Electrocardiogram (ECG) contamination is present in diaphragm electromyography (EMGdi) recordings. Obtaining EMGdi without ECG contamination is crucial for EMG amplitude analysis. Manually selecting EMGdi in between QRS complexes has been most commonly applied in recent years (manual met...
