The
EMG Manual is a simple step-by-step approach to
the basic understanding of EMG and Nerve Conductions
studies. It is designed to familiarize the reader
with the basic aspects of nerve conduction studies
and needle examinations and can serve as a guide
to the test, a preparation for the EMG rotation,
or as a simple means for better understanding of
the indications, preparations, interpretation and
performance of EMG Nerve and Conduction studies
We routinely record the sensory
response from the fifth finger and the dorsum of the
hand. Record the motor response from the abductor digiti
minimi (ADM) and in ulnar neuropathies, from the first
dorsal interosseous (First DI) as well.
