Electrodiagnostic Study Methodology:


Nerve conduction study performed using equipment with the following technical
specifications. Constant current stimulator
(duration 100-500 usec, magnitude 0-100 mAmp, compliance >420 volt). Amplifier (two
channels, common mode rejection >90
dB, noise < 2 uV rms, gain to X100,000, filter high pass 14/175 Hz for motor and
sensory recordings respectively, filter low pass
7 kHz, sampling rate 20 kHz). Nerve conduction response waveforms and cursors
displayed and edited, as required, in real-time.
Nerve conduction response parameters including latency, conduction velocity,
amplitude, and waveform configuration displayed
on LCD in real-time.

Needle electromyography study performed using equipment with the following


technical specifications. Amplifier (one channel,
common mode rejection >90 dB, noise < 2.5 uV rms, gain to X10,000, filter high pass
2/16 Hz selectable, filter low pass 5 kHz,
sampling rate 10 kHz). Loudspeaker (3.2 W, filter 4 pole low pass at 1.5 kHz).
Electromyography traces displayed on LCD in
real-time.
