Abstract/OtherAbstract:
General techniques of electrodiagnostic examination, how such examination can predict the pathophysiology of nerve injury, and specific techniques and findings of the major entrapments such as carpal tunnel syndrome and ulnar nerve neuropathy are described in detail. Additional disease states that relate to hand surgery, such as anterior interosseous syndrome, brachial plexopathy, radiculopathy, polyneuropathy, and the nebulous entity of thoracic outlet syndrome are discussed.
