Rigorous, Expert-Led
Neuromuscular Education

The 41 lectures in Electrodiagnostic Medicine and Neuromuscular Disorders — each between 30 and 45 minutes — delve into basic techniques and clinical applications of electrodiagnosis and ultrasound, as well as generalized disorders, motor neuron diseases, polyneuropathies, neuromuscular junction disorders, and myopathies.

Basics of Needle EMG: Voluntary Activity

Motor unit potential waveform reflects changes in motor unit architecture due to disease processes, while the interference pattern provides information about the number of motor units and their activation.

Neuropathies & Systemic Disease

Carefully characterizing the phenotype of neuropathy helps narrow down relevant causes across metabolic, neoplastic, inflammatory, and infectious etiologies.

Muscle Channelopathies

For a patient with a personal and family history of muscle stiffness and pain, consider genetic testing for myotonic disorders to guide diagnosis and management.

After completing this activity,
clinicians should be able to:

List the methods of rehabilitation management of neuromuscular disease
Recognize the common neuromuscular mimics of the upper extremity
Identify the signs of neuropathies found on physical examination
List the substances that can cause toxic polyneuropathies
Compare the two groups of disorders found in muscle channelopathies
Describe the classic presentation of amyotrophic lateral sclerosis
Explain how to tailor treatment of myasthenia gravis to disease severity
Discuss how to evaluate a patient with generalized weakness
Outline the role of electromyography in focal mononeuropathies of the leg
Name the common inherited and acquired causes of rhabdomyolysis
