Abstract
This paper describes a device used to measure the isometric forces generated during electrical stimulation of the canine latissimus dorsi muscle in vivo with a preserved neurovascular supply. This device uses 2 strain gauge force sensors linked to a movable alignment frame to which the muscle is attached. The muscle length is controlled by the application of known weights to the system. The device has a frequency of response of 17.5 Hz and compliance of approximately 0.1 mm N(-1), and its experimental performance was tested in the anesthetized mongrel dog.
