Has anyone handled a study taking fNIRS, ECG and EMG measures, and if so, how did you handle the baseline?

29 June 2016 1 4K Report

Hi all,

I'm putting together a protocol involving fNIRS, ECG and EMG, and am aware that they all have different requirements regarding the return to resting state. Does anyone out there have any thoughts or publications they'd like to share with me regarding when and how long a baseline I should be taking given multiple tasks/conditions and these measures?

Also, I was intending to reset the fNIRS, at least, between each task - providing a new set of baseline calculations between each task. Given this, is it useful to also record a resting baseline, or is there no point?

Much thanks in advance.

I think this is not so easy to consider the baseline for all the modalities. Therefore, you have to consider a general hypothesis to measure the signals because their temporal resolutions are not same. Although the baseline of these three signals are not same.
