Samples in periodicals archive:
Electromyographic activity was recorded using 4 pairs of preamplified surface electrodes ([double dagger])--2 pairs for the wrist flexors (flexor carpi radialis [FCR] and flexor carpi ulnaris [FCU]) and 2 pairs for the wrist extensors (extensor carpi radialis brevis [ECRB] and extensor digitorum communis [EDC]).
Electromyography was used to measure the muscle activity of the flexor digitorum superficialis (FDS) and extensor digitorum communis (EDC) muscles while subjects typed on keyboards with keys of varying stiffness.
The wrist flexion mechanically assists finger extension due to the tenodesis effect of the extensor digitorum communis muscle as the wrist drops into flexion.
