Claim One:
1. An apparatus for generating neuromuscular profile data for a patient, the apparatus comprising: an EMG device for generating an EMG signal for a patient; a ROM device for generating a ROM signal for a patient, said ROM device utilizing a remote sensing technology; a signal processing unit including a ROM signal processing device for converting the ROM signal into ROM data and a signal processing device for converting the EMG signal to EMG data the signal processing unit further including a first data output terminal for outputting the EMG data and a second data output terminal for outputting the ROM data, the first data output terminal being separately provided in the signal processing unit from the second data output terminal; a client computer having a computer memory, said client computer being operatively connected to said EMG device and said ROM device via said signal processing unit, said client computer being configured to receive said EMG data and said ROM data and to store said EMG data and said ROM data in said computer memory; and a server computer including an expert system configured to evaluate said EMG data and said ROM data and an expert database, the expert system utilizing a pattern comparison method, wherein: in the pattern comparison method, the server computer is configured to extract patterns from said EMG data and said ROM data and to compare the extracted patterns with patterns in the expert database, and the client computer is configured to receive said ROM data output from the second data output terminal via a channel different from a channel for receiving said EMG data output from the first data output terminal.
