    To confirm the identity of the phrenic nerve, a doctor may gently manipulate it to elicit a dartle (diaphragmatic startle) response. [7] The right phrenic nerve may be crushed by the vena cava clamp during liver transplantation. [8] Severing the phrenic nerve, or a phrenectomy, [9] will paralyse that half of the diaphragm. Bilateral ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electrophysiological...

    The compression of the median nerve within the carpal canal of the wrist and the progression of symptoms resulting from this entrapment is known as carpal tunnel syndrome (CTS). Nerve conduction studies have been used as a control electrophysiological method in the development of better CTS diagnostic techniques. [9]

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Intraoperative...

    Intraoperative neurophysiological monitoring (IONM) or intraoperative neuromonitoring is the use of electrophysiological methods such as electroencephalography (EEG), electromyography (EMG), and evoked potentials to monitor the functional integrity of certain neural structures (e.g., nerves, spinal cord and parts of the brain) during surgery.
