ABSTRACT:
A method for evaluating the function of the muscles of the pelvic floor of a human patient simultaneously measures myographic signals for proximal and distal muscles of the anal canal or the like by means of a first and second electrode pair displaced along an insulating support fitting within the anal canal. The depth of insertion of the insulating support is controlled by a stop which may include a pair of wings extending substantially perpendicularly from the insulating support for being received and held by the buttocks. The wings also control the orientation of the electrodes within the canal.
