The contributions of the various ulnar-innervated muscles of the hand to the hypothenar compound muscle action potential (CMAP) were estimated by directly stimulating individual muscles and by analyzing CMAP shape changes resulting from manipulations that changed individual muscle lengths. The resul

Twenty-five Turkish patients with recessive myotonia congenita (RMC), 16 of whom had genetic confirmation, were studied. Nineteen had transient weakness. In the upper extremities, onset age of transient weakness was usually in the early teens. All untreated RMC patients had a compound muscle action
In daily practice, accessory peroneal nerves (APNs) are detected in less than the 18-25% of legs, as revealed by systematic searches. In one APN case, compound muscle action potential cartography showed that the APN was only apparent when the recording electrode was placed over a small lateral regio
Motor unit action potential (MUAP) components are investigated by means of single fiber computer simulations and clinical measurements. The single fiber simulations have essentially full bandwidth without noise, whereas the clinical measurements were made with a 3-10,000-Hz bandwidth utilizing appro
Power spectrum analysis of myoelectric signals has been used to measure the propagation velocity in a large number of voluntary action potentials in biceps and brachioradialis muscles of normal children, 0-20 years old. The method used can be applied to both single motor units signals and interferen
