Optimal Site of the Reference Electrode for Recording the Compound Muscle Action Potential of the Deltoid Muscle

open access: yesMuscle &Nerve, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Introduction/Aims For recording the compound muscle action potential (CMAP) of the deltoid muscle, the reference electrode over the acromion (Ac) has been used to avoid contamination of responses from other arm muscles to the distal tendon (DT). A recent article recommended the sternum (St) as the reference electrode.
