  1. 1. Development of a Mobile Phone Application for Measuring Muscle Shaking (tremor) in Order to Simplify Medical Diagnostics

    University essay from KTH/Skolan för elektroteknik och datavetenskap (EECS)

    Author : Kristoffer Gunnarsson; [2023]
    Keywords : Android application; Medical diagnostics; Accelerometer; Graphical user interface; Frequency analysis; Androidapplikation; Medicinsk diagnostisering; Accelerometer; Grafiskt användargränssnitt; Frekvensanalys;

    Abstract : At the moment, there is no quick and easy method to measure muscle shaking (tremor) reliably. In order to avoid long waiting times for an Electromyography (EMG) investigation, this thesis aims to create an Android smartphone application capable of measuring muscle tremor at a moment’s notice.

  3. 2. Parkinson’s disease tremor assessment: Leveragingsmartphones for symptom measurement

    University essay from Malmö universitet/Institutionen för datavetenskap och medieteknik (DVMT)

    Author : Malek Abdul Sater; Reem Mohamed; [2023]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : Parkinson's disease (PD) is a progressive, chronic neurodegenerative disorder that impacts patients' quality of life. Hand tremor is a hallmark motor symptom of PD. However, current clinical tremor assessment methods are time-consuming and expensive and may not capture the full extent of tremor fluctuations. READ MORE

  4. 3. Preprocessing of earthquake tremor data for tremor location

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för geovetenskaper

    Author : Brian Rydgren; [2022]
    Keywords : Tremor; Earthquake; Volcano;

    Abstract : When analysing volcanic seismicity and volcanic events, it is often interesting to focus on tremor, which is a signal of long duration. This is because not much is known about tremor. Unlike earthquakes, sources of tremor are difficult to locate due to them not having any clear onsets in the seismic signal. READ MORE

  5. 4. Investigation of ECG electrodes for burn wounds

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för elektroteknik

    Author : Linus Falk; [2020]
    Keywords : ECG; electrode; burn; wound;

    Abstract : This project aims to investigate a variety of electrodes for ECG (electrocardiogram) measurements and find suitable ones for burn wounded skin in association with the Burn center in Uppsala University Hospital.   To this purpose, the electrical properties (in particular, electrical impedance and equivalent circuit) of electrodes and the influence of the skin on the electrical properties are looked into, and various common artefacts in ECG measurements are investigated, such as wandering baseline (caused by perspiration, respiration, patient movement and poor electrode contact), muscle tremor artefact, 50-60 Hz power line interference and measurement noise.
