Manufactured by National Instruments
Sourced in United States

The 12-bit analog-to-digital converter is a data acquisition device that converts continuous analog signals into digital data. It has a resolution of 12 bits, allowing it to represent analog input voltages with 4,096 discrete digital values. The device can sample and digitize analog signals at a specific rate, providing a digital representation of the original analog waveform.

Isometric Strength and EMG Measurement

During the isometric strength testing, force was detected by the tension applied to the load cell. The force signal was digitized with a 12-bit analog-to-digital converter (National Instruments, Austin, TX, USA) and stored in a personal computer for further analyses. Bipolar EMG signals were detected from the belly of the biceps brachii muscle with a preamplified surface EMG sensor (10 mm interelectrode distance DE 2.1 single differential surface EMG sensor; Delsys, Inc., Boston, MA, USA) during all the isometric MVCs. Before placing the surface EMG sensor, all skin sites were shaved and cleansed with rubbing alcohol. The EMG sensor was placed in accordance to the electrode placement recommendations from the SENIAM project [24 ], and the reference electrode (5.08 cm diameter; Dermatrode HE-R, American Imex, Irvine, CA, USA) was placed on the seventh cervical vertebra. The raw EMG signals were amplified (gain = 1000) with Bagnoli 16-channel EMG system (Delsys, Inc., Boston, MA, USA) and filtered with a bandpass of 10-500 Hz. The EMG signals were then digitized at a sampling rate of 20000 samples per second with a 12-bit analog-to-digital converter (National Instruments, Austin, TX, USA) and stored in a personal computer for subsequent analyses.

Surface electrodes (Delsys DE 2.1, Delsys Inc, Boston, MA) were used to record the electromyograms (EMG) from paretic leg muscles: hip abductor (gluteus medius), medial hamstrings, medial gastrocnemius, soleus, rectus femoris, vastus medialis, and tibialis anterior. EMG signals were amplified (gain 1,000) and band-pass filtered (20–450 Hz) in hardware. All signals were then sampled at 500 Hz via a 12-bit analog-to-digital converter (National Instruments, Austin, TX) on a PC running custom-written LabVIEW program.

Respiratory System Mechanics Measurement

Airflow, volume, and airway pressure (Paw) were recorded with a computer running custom software written in LabVIEW® (National Instruments, Texas, USA; Silva et al., 2013 (link)). All signals were amplified (TAM-D HSE Plugsys Transducers Amplifiers, Module Type 705/2, Harvard Apparatus, MA, USA) and sampled at 200 Hz with a 12-bit analog-to-digital converter (National Instruments, Texas, USA). Respiratory system elastance (E,RS) and resistance (R,RS) were calculated based on the equation of motion (Uhlig et al., 2014 (link)): Paw(t)=RRSV.·(t)+ERSV(t)+P0 , where t is time, V is volume, and P0 is Paw at end-expiration. Volume-independent elastance (E1,RS) and volume-dependent elastance (E2,RS) as well as the E,RS non-linearity index (%E2) were calculated cycle-by-cycle as described elsewhere (Carvalho et al., 2013b (link)).

Measuring Maximal Isometric Force

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
During both Pre- and Post-MVCs in all four experimental testing visits, force was detected by the tension applied to the load cell. The force signal was digitized with a 12-bit analog-to-digital converter (National Instruments, Austin, TX) and stored in a personal computer (Dell Optiplex 755, Round Rock, TX) for further analyses. For each force signal, the maximal force output was selected from the highest 1-s portion of the 5-s isometric MVC.

All parameters were recorded with a computer running custom software written in LabVIEW® (National Instruments; Austin, Texas, USA) (Silva et al., 2013 (link)). All signals were amplified in a three-channel signal conditioner (TAM-D HSE Plugsys Transducers Amplifiers, Module Type 705/2, Harvard Apparatus, Holliston, Massachusetts, USA) and sampled at 200 Hz with a 12-bit analog-to-digital converter (National Instruments; Austin, Texas, USA).

Airflow, volume, and airway pressure were continuously recorded with a computer running custom software written in LabVIEW (National Instruments; Austin, Texas, USA) (Silva et al., 2013 (link)). All signals were amplified in a three-channel signal conditioner (TAM-D HSE Plugsys Transducers Amplifiers, Module Type 705/2, Harvard Apparatus, Holliston, Massachusetts, USA) and sampled at 1,000 Hz with a 12-bit analog-to-digital converter (National Instruments; Austin, Texas, USA). E and R were calculated offline based on the equation of motion (Uhlig et al., 2014 (link)).

Electromyographic Analysis of Gait Mechanics

Surface electrodes (Delsys DE 2.1, Delsys Inc., Boston, MA) were used to record the electromyograms (EMG) during treadmill walking from 7 muscles on the paretic leg: hip abductor (gluteus medius), medial hamstrings, medial gastrocnemius, soleus, rectus femoris, vastus medialis and tibialis anterior. Electrodes were applied to lightly abraded, degreased skin over the respective muscle belly. EMG signals were amplified (gain 1,000) and band-pass filtered (20–450 Hz) in hardware. All signals were then sampled at 500 Hz via a 12-bit analog-to-digital converter (National Instruments, Austin, TX) on a PC running custom-written LabVIEW program.

Respiratory Mechanics Measurement Protocol

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Airflow, airway pressure (Paw), and Pes were recorded continuously throughout the experiments by a computer running customer-made software written in LabVIEW (National Instruments, USA). VT was calculated by digital integration of the airflow signal. The total respiratory rate (RR) was calculated from the Pes swings as the frequency per minute of each type of breathing cycle. Peak transpulmonary pressure (Ppeak,L) was calculated as the difference between tracheal and esophageal pressure. P0.1 is the esophageal pressure measured 100 ms after the onset of inspiratory effort, and it reflects the neuromuscular drive. All signals were amplified in a three-channel signal conditioner (TAM-DHSE Plugsys Transducers Amplifiers, Module Type 705/2, Harvard Apparatus, Holliston, Massachusetts, USA) and sampled at 200 Hz with a 12-bit analog-to-digital converter (National Instruments; Austin, Texas, USA) [19 (link)]. All mechanical data were computed offline by a routine written in MATLAB (Version R2007a; The Mathworks Inc., USA).

Airflow and airway pressure were continuously recorded throughout the experiments [7 (link), 15 (link), 16 (link)]. VT, RR, and V′E were calculated. Respiratory system mechanics were assessed by occluding the airways at end-inspiration for 5 s until a respiratory system plateau pressure (Pplat,RS) was reached. Respiratory system driving pressure (∆P,RS) was calculated as the difference between Pplat,RS (post end-inspiratory pause) and PEEP. All signals were amplified in a four-channel signal conditioner (SC-24, SCIREQ, Montreal, QC, Canada), and sampled at 200 Hz with a 12-bit analog-to-digital converter (National Instruments; Austin, Texas, USA). Mechanical data were computed offline by a routine written in MATLAB (Version R2007a; The Mathworks Inc., Natick, Massachusetts, USA).

About PubCompare

Our mission is to provide scientists with the largest repository of trustworthy protocols and intelligent analytical tools, thereby offering them extensive information to design robust protocols aimed at minimizing the risk of failures.

We believe that the most crucial aspect is to grant scientists access to a wide range of reliable sources and new useful tools that surpass human capabilities.

However, we trust in allowing scientists to determine how to construct their own protocols based on this information, as they are the experts in their field.
