  2. Electromyoneurography - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electromyoneurography

    As to more recent use, electromyoneurography has been employed throughout the 21st century, aiding in the diagnosis of carpal tunnel syndrome, abnormal glucose levels, and many other myopathies. This procedure now analyzes the nerve conduction and muscle potentials through the use of H-Reflex and F-Wave studies. Combined with a pre-examination ...

  3. Nerve conduction study - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nerve_conduction_study

    The nerve conduction study is often combined with needle electromyography. The Department of Health and Human Services Inspector General recently identified the use of NCSs without a needle electromyography at the same time a sign of questionable billing. [9] The nerve conduction study consists of the following components:

  4. Repetitive nerve stimulation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Repetitive_nerve_stimulation

    Repetitive nerve stimulation is a variant of the nerve conduction study where electrical stimulation is delivered to a motor nerve repeatedly several times per second. By observing the change in the muscle electrical response (CMAP) after several stimulations, a physician can assess for the presence of a neuromuscular junction disease, and differentiate between presynaptic and postsynaptic ...

  5. Nerve conduction velocity - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nerve_conduction_velocity

    Nerve conduction studies performed on healthy adults revealed that age is negatively associated with the sensory amplitude measures of the Median, Ulnar, and Sural nerves. Negative associations were also found between age and the conduction velocities and latencies in the Median sensory, Median motor, and Ulnar sensory nerves.

  6. Ischemic monomelic neuropathy - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ischemic_monomelic_neuropathy

    The diagnosis can be verified with nerve conduction studies and electromyography. Axonal loss, low amplitude or absent responses to sensory and motor nerve stimulation, and comparatively preserved conduction velocities are commonly observed in the electromyogram. [7]

  7. Chronic inflammatory demyelinating polyneuropathy - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chronic_inflammatory_de...

    Electrodiagnostics – electromyography (EMG) and nerve conduction study (NCS). In usual CIDP, the nerve conduction studies show demyelination. These findings include: [citation needed] a reduction in nerve conduction velocities; the presence of conduction block or abnormal temporal dispersion in at least one motor nerve;

  8. Carpal tunnel surgery - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Carpal_tunnel_surgery

    The procedure is used as a treatment for carpal tunnel syndrome and according to the American Academy of Orthopaedic Surgeons (AAOS) treatment guidelines, early surgery is an option when there is clinical evidence of median nerve denervation or the patient elects to proceed directly to surgical treatment. [5]

  9. Physical therapy in carpal tunnel syndrome - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Physical_therapy_in_carpal...

    Restricting wrist motion eliminates the repetitive movement and tension overload in the carpal tunnel. This gives the tendon sheaths a chance to heal, reducing swelling, which then may decrease the pressure on the median nerve. [citation needed] Splints also aim to keep the wrist at a certain angle to decrease pressure within the carpal tunnel ...
