P13-22 Identification of the waveform to show the damage of motor pathway in the free-run EMG of the operations for spinal cord: A case studyMuscle action potentials induced by transcranial electrical stimulation (TCSMEP) are well used to know the impairment of motor function under general ...
EMG and SSEP monitoring during cervical spinal cord stimulationIntraoperative monitoring during spinal cord stimulation (SCS) has become increasingly popular among neurosurgeons. In some cases, general anesthesia during SCS device implantation can be advantageous for the patient's comfort, as well as ...
Spinal cord injuryManual muscle testElectromyogramObjective: The purpose of this study was to compare the electromyography (EMG) score during contraction of a given muscle to the independently measured manual muscle test (MMT)score for that same muscle (or muscle group) , to determine whether EMG ...
Doctors do a spinal tap to see if you might have: An infection such asmeningitisorencephalitis Bleeding in your brain Multiple sclerosis Sometimes, spinal taps are done for other reasons, such as: To get medicine quickly to your brain...
2). It is interesting to note that only electrodes connected to the stimulator for pulse delivery (DS or test pulses) were the active electrodes in use. The other electrodes in contact with the spinal cord were open circuited and thus did not directly impact on the spread of the electric ...
Spinal cord injured (SCI)Evoked electromyography (eEMG)Joint torqueBackground Functional electrical stimulation (FES) is a neuroprosthetic technique for restoring lost motor function of spinal cord injured (SCI) patients and motor-impaired subjects by delivering short electrical pulses to their paralyzed ...
A nerve conduction study (NCS) tests the health of your peripheral nerves, the nerves located outside your central nervous system (the brain and spinal cord). An NCS measures how fast and how strong the electrical activity is in your motor (muscle) and sensory nerves. The test can tell wh...

It’s one of the simplest acts most people can perform, but just wiggling your finger is a vastly complex process under the hood. Once you consciously decide to move your digit, a cascade of electrochemical reactions courses from the brain down the spinal cord and along nerves to reach the...
