Description
The gold standard in many EMG labs, this resource is a practical working reference
for performing a wide variety of common nerve conduction studies. It provides
both practicing clinicals and trainees with an impressive database of normal
values they can use to interpret nerve conduction results with confidence. This
third edition has been revised to deliver an up-to-date set of normal values.
The gold standard in many EMG labs, this resource is a practical working reference
for performing a wide variety of common nerve conduction studies. It provides
both practising clinicians and trainees with an impressive database of normal
values they can use to interpret nerve conduction results with confidence. The
third edition is revised to deliver an up-to-date set of normal values that
take into account age, sex, height, and body mass index for a wide range of
demographic groups. Two new authors bring a novel clinical perspective to the
manual along with valuable tips and pearls to help the busy electromyographer
conduct more effective studies and make a more informed diagnosis.
The third edition includes updated nomenclature and methodology for conducting
nerve conduction tests along with supportive evidence to bolster all recommendations.
New illustrations and diagrams supplement precise descriptions of electrode
placements and study techniques. Additionally, the authors codify the acceptable
differences in latency, amplitude, and nerve conduction velocity between nerves
of the same or opposite limbs, to foster a more precise diagnosis. Recently
updated references and suggested readings for each study provide the opportunity
for more in-depth learning.
For determining normal reference values for any patient, or for review of a
specific nerve conduction technique, this third edition of Buschbacher's Manual
of Nerve Conduction Studies is essential for physicians and technologists alike.
Key Features:
• New references, technique descriptions, and drawings bring the classic
manual up to date.
• Provides clinical pearls and tips for performing each study.
• A new Appendix covers common anomalous innervations such as the Martin
Gruber Anastomosis.
• Offers a current, comprehensive set of reference values for clinical
use.
• Discusses advantages and pitfalls of alternative techniques.
• Includes schematics to illustrate optimal electrode placement and typical
waveform appearance.
