Actual (reported)Venous Haemodynamic Measurements (Volume Flow Rate)
Measurement by ultrasound, in right femoral vein. Flow rate (ml/min).
Baseline compared to that after 10-mins stimulation (2-mins to take measurements)
Venous Haemodynamic Measurements (Time Averaged Maximum Velocity)
Measurement by ultrasound, in right femoral vein. Time averaged maximum velocity (cm/s).
Baseline compared to that after 10-mins stimulation (2-mins to take measurements)
Pain Grading on Stimulation
During stimulation (10-mins each muscle)
Stimulation of muscle in this order: vastus medials, rectus femoris, vastus lateralis, tibialis anterior, peroneus longus, medial head gastrocnemius, lateral head gastrocnemius
Stimulation of muscle in this order: rectus femoris, vastus lateralis, tibialis anterior, peroneus longus, medial head gastrocnemius, lateral head gastrocnemius, vastus medials
Stimulation with Digitimer (DS7A HV, Digitimer Ltd, UK) over motor point of muscle in protocol. 1Hz, pulse duration 1ms, maximum compliance voltage 200V. Current set to twice motor threshold
