Brief Summary

The purpose of this investigator-initiated study is to determine the effect of prior muscle activation on the response obtained by nerve conduction studies (the compound muscle action potential \[CMAP...

Detailed Description

Nerve conduction studies (NCS) will be performed with supramaximal nerve stimulation, surface stimulation, surface recording, and with best possible technique controlling as many variables as possible...
