Fernández Fernández, Patricia Carbajo FloresTreball de fi de grau en BiomèdicaInside Pompeu Fabra University students of Biomedical Engineering, Medicine and Human Biology bachelor degrees must perform several physiology practices by using a software. In more detail, the software in question is related to the skeletal muscle contraction in response to electrical stimulations of the motor nerve. During the last years a clear need for better performing software has been identified due the incompatibility with current operating systems and visual aspects. Therefore, this project proposes and designs a new version of an open-source software that covers the need of physiology practices for the bachelor students. The project was carried out covering the three main subjects related to action potential of skeletal muscle, summation of motor units and wave summation that leads to tetanization. It was possible to carry out the design of the program thanks to Python programming language and the use of PyQt package along with its’ functions.application/pdfeng©Tots els drets reservatsinfo:eu-repo/semantics/bachelorThesisSkeletal muscle contractionComputer physiology practicesAction potentialSummation of motor unitsWave summationTetanizationPythonPyQtinfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccess
