Optimizar el rendimiento de los electrodos en la electromiografía (EMG) y la tomografía de impedancia eléctrica (EIT) es fundamental para avanzar en la adquisición de datos musculares. Este estudio evalúa sistemáticamente varios tipos, formas y materiales de electrodos, centrándose en optimizar la relación señal/ruido, la durabilidad y la usabilidad a largo plazo. Una contribución clave de esta investigación es la identificación de los electrodos de acero inoxidable como la opción más eficiente, demostrando una estabilidad de señal superior, resistencia a la oxidación y reutilización en comparación con las alternativas desechables. Este hallazgo no solo mejora la confiabilidad de las mediciones de EMG y EIT, sino que también ofrece una solución sostenible y rentable para aplicaciones clínicas y de investigación. Al proporcionar evidencia empírica sobre la selección y el diseño de electrodos, este estudio sienta las bases para mejorar las metodologías en rehabilitación, medicina deportiva y neurología, lo que en última instancia mejora la atención al paciente y profundiza la comprensión de la fisiología muscular.
