Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frame
Better performance for the identification of voluntary cough in relation to spontaneous respiration in the computer and spinal cord injury, analysis and performance of electromyographic tests of the greater muscle, through the processing of effective RMS values. Root), and in the frequency domain, a classifier such as a Support Vector Machine (SVM) is used for performance and accuracy analysis of 98% or greater. The data collections pertinent to the study were initiated on February 2, 2017 and will be held until October 4 of the same year.—
