Electrodiagnosis and Nerve Conduction Studies

Clinics in Podiatry, 1984
The use of electrodiagnostic techniques in evaluation of complaints in the lower extremities provides an objective method of assessment. A basic understanding of principles of neurophysiology, EMG and NCV methodology, and neuropathology of peripheral nerves greatly enhances physical diagnosis and improves the state of the art in treatment of the lower ...

Sensory Nerve Conduction Studies

Journal of Clinical Neurophysiology, 1994
Sensory nerve conduction studies (NCS) are an indispensable component of the electrodiagnostic examination. They evolved from mixed NCS, and were initially described by Dawson in 1950. Gilliatt and Sears first reported their clinical value in 1958. Compared to motor NCS, sensory NCS are much less standardized.

Nerve conduction and excitability studies in peripheral nerve disorders

Current Opinion in Neurology, 2009
The review is aimed at providing information about the role of nerve excitability studies in peripheral nerve disorders. It has been known for many years that the insight into peripheral nerve pathophysiology provided by conventional nerve conduction studies is limited.

Nerve conduction study of ulnar nerve in volleyball players

Scandinavian Journal of Medicine & Science in Sports, 2005
Ulnar neuropathy at the elbow is a common disorder seen in the throwing athlete. The purpose of our study was to determine whether asymptomatic physically active volleyball players and non‐actives demonstrate distinct differences in nerve conduction of the ulnar nerve at the elbow.

Nerve conduction study in facial palsy

Archiv f�r klinische und experimentelle Ohren- Nasen- und Kehlkopfheilkunde, 1971
The muscle action potential evoked by the facial nerve stimulation was investigated in 31 normal subjects and in 122 patients with facial palsy. The normal finding of this nerve conduction study was described in detail, and the results of the qualitative and quantitative analysis of the nerve conduction patterns obtained from the patients were ...

Nerve conduction study of human tetrodotoxication

Neurology, 1989
We carried out serial nerve conduction studies in a patient with tetrodotoxication caused by ingesting pufferfish. Conduction velocities and amplitudes of muscle and sensory nerve action potentials were equally affected. Neither temporal dispersion nor focal conduction block occurred. The proximal (F wave) motor latencies were also prolonged.

Variability of repeated nerve conduction studies

Electroencephalography and Clinical Neurophysiology/Evoked Potentials Section, 1991
We have determined the variability of repeated measurements of sensory nerve action potential (SNAP) and compound muscle action potential (CMAP) amplitude and motor and sensory conduction velocity (MCV and SCV) and examined the extent to which limb temperature is responsible for the variability. We made 10 serial measurements of SNAP, CMAP, MCV and SCV

Nerve conduction studies in natural rubella

Annals of Neurology, 1977
AbstractNormal nerve conduction velocities and terminal latency values were obtained in 31 patients with natural rubella, many of whom complained of numbness, tingling, and other subjective sensory abnormalities. The observations suggest that true neuropathy may not occur in natural rubella.

Nerve Conduction Studies of Phrenic Nerve: Normative Data

Journal of Clinical Neurophysiology
Introduction: In neuromuscular diseases, respiratory failure is a major complication. Pulmonary function tests are generally used to assess respiratory function but can be influenced by a number of factors. Nerve conduction studies of the phrenic nerve (PN) is a simple, noninvasive, and safe method to assess ...

Nerve conduction studies.

British journal of hospital medicine, 1989
Nerve conduction studies provide unique quantitative information about neurological function in patients with a variety of neuromuscular disorders. This article emphasizes the need for careful selection of the appropriate procedures, informed interpretation of the data, and correlation of the results with the clinical information about each individual ...
