Clinical Neurophysiology Nerve Conduction, Electromyography, Evoked Potentials
Clinical neurophysiology has evolved as an extension of clinical examination. This book has three main parts of electrodiagnosis - nerve conduction, electromyography and evoked potentials. The emphasis is on correct method of conducting the test including pitfalls, precautions, and proper interpretation of the results. The normal values of various tests have been provided. The application of nerve conduction, electromyography and evoked potentials in various neurological disorders has been discussed for bedside application and clinical problem solving.Features:The text is amply illustrated by relevant videos, CT and MRI scans, patients’ photographs, charts, and tables. The book also provides up-to-date review of relevant clinical and electrophysiological literature, and histopathological correlation with electrodiagnostic tests. These features make this book reader friendly for students and practitioners.New to this Edition:Recent advances in clinical neurophysiology have been included in this edition a greatly help in bedside clinical decision making.Additional FeatureComplimentary access to online videos along with full e-book.Contents Overview1 History of Clinical Neurophysiology2 An Introduction to Electrodiagnostic Signals and Their Measurements3 Nerve Conduction Study4 Electromyography5 Clinical Application of EMG and Nerve Conduction6 Repetitive Nerve Stimulation7 Single-Fiber Electromyography7 Single-Fiber Electromyography9 Brainstem Auditory Evoked Potential10 Somatosensory Evoked Potentials11 Motor Evoked Potential12 Cognitive Evoked Potential13 Electrodiagnosis in Pediatric Practice14 Role of Clinical Neurophysiology in the Prognosis of Neuromuscular Disorders
