Event Details
Course introduction:
Nerve conduction studies and needle electromyography have been used to study neuromuscular diseases for more than 7 decades. In this seminar, Dr. Sanjeev Nandedkar will review the principles of commonly performed electrodiagnostic procedures. The measurements of signals will be related to the pathology of nerves and muscles. The various technical aspects of the procedure that affect measurements will be described. Finally, the difficulties with suitable reference limits will be addressed.
Course Objectives:
- Demonstrate motor NCS, sensory NCS and F wave procedure
- Understand the anatomic correlation of measurements
- Understand the effect of technical parameters
- Use appropriate reference limits to increase the sensitivity
CE Credits:
This course is valid for 1.0 CEC approved by AAET– The American Association of Electrodiagnostic Technologists
