Electrodiagnosis in Neuromuscular Disorders

Annals of Internal Medicine, 1981
Nerve conduction and stimulation studies and needle electromyography are useful in objectively verifying the presence of disease of nerve and muscle. How pathologic alterations in muscle and nerve produce the electrical abnormalities detected by these combined techniques is explored to guide the clinician in distinguishing whether a neuromuscular ...

Electrodiagnosis of Cervical Radiculopathy

Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation Clinics of North America, 2013
Cervical radiculopathy is a common diagnosis with a peak onset in the fifth decade. The most commonly affected nerve root is C7, C6, and C8. The etiology is often compressive, but may arise from noncompressive sources. Patients commonly complain of pain, weakness, numbness, and/or tingling.

Electrodiagnosis in Neuromuscular Disease

Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation Clinics of North America, 2012
Electromyography (EMG) is an important diagnostic tool for the assessment of individuals with various neuromuscular diseases. It should be an extension of a thorough history and physical examination. Some prototypical characteristics and findings of EMG and nerve conduction studies are discussed; however, a more thorough discussion can be found in the ...

Electrodiagnosis in Orthopedic Surgery

Clinical Orthopaedics and Related Research, 1975
The electromyogram is gaining importance as a diagnostic tool in the clinical practice of orthopedic surgery. Its uses in the area of kinesiology will undoubtedly be further developed in the future in ways which can be standardized and made available to the practicing orthopedist to improve the results of muscle and tendon surgery and the design of ...

Electrodiagnosis of Peripheral Neuropathy

Neurologic Clinics, 2012
Electrodiagnostic studies are an important component of the evaluation of patients with suspected peripheral nerve disorders. The pattern of findings and the features that are seen on the motor and sensory nerve conduction studies and needle electromyography can help to identify the type of neuropathy, define the underlying pathophysiology (axonal or ...

Electrodiagnosis in Neuromuscular Diseases

Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation Clinics of North America, 1998
This article provides a general approach to the electrodiagnostic evaluation of the patient with neuromuscular disease. The electrodiagnostic findings in patients with various forms of peripheral neuropathy, motor neuron disease, neuromuscular junction disorders, and myopathy are presented. The pediatric electrodiagnostic evaluation is also discussed.

Electrodiagnosis in Facial Palsy

Archives of Otolaryngology - Head and Neck Surgery, 1965
SPONTANEOUS paralysis of the muscles of expression of one side of the face (Bell's palsy) is a common neurological condition. Its cause is unknown and more than half the patients suffer a simple block of conduction from which they recover completely. The remainder develop some degree of denervation of the facial musculature and never recover completely.
