I am not a medical professional. I am a patient with a problem in her shoulder and I just had and EMG. Even I could follow this explanation. Great work!
Same, I love watching these videos, they're so well explained and interesting! I've had two EMGs in the past and I'm having another one next month ✨ I hope your shoulder is doing better!! 🍀
You're one of the best explainer I have witnessed, Doctor! You're making my med school bearable. For sure even a primary schooler can understand you! Thank you, Doctor!! 🥰
Wow! Thankyou.. currently studying for my Masters in Orthopaedics Physiotherapy exam. Started with studying EMG, came across your video and got hooked.
I had right hip arthroscopic surgery FEB2021 - I experience spasms and various pains in my anterior thigh (sharp, burning, allusive itching, cold wash, tingling), with other groin, knee, inner thigh, outer-hip and buttock pains. I have finally gotten my pain management team to schedule an EMG/NCS. PM diagnosed me with meralgia parasthetica- however I have been pushing for the EMG for almost a year, now, due to muscle loss and functional loss. (I cannot fully extend through a step while walking without my leg buckling and so I walk with a cane). This information gives me some comfort knowing what I am going into and the science behind the method. I have had spinal nerve ablation, LFCN ablation, corticosteroid injections and I am scheduled for a steroid injection for my sacroiliac joint. They’re trying to find the pain source - but I truly feel it’s femoral nerve damage from the surgery. Thank you for this video - It’s been a hard road and I’m hoping for some answers with this study.
I am getting an EMG in a month due to my muscle spasms/ twitches. I have both fasciculations ans I think fibrillation. I can feel a buzzing/vibrating feeling in my muscles sometimes.
Fasciculations can occur outside of neurogenic disease . During autonomic nervous system dysfunction mitochondrial biogenesis is impaired, acetylcholine leaks from the neuromuscular junction and sarcomere contractions occur.
acetylcholinesterase is not attached to the nerve side, but muscle side. Muscle side also produces it. Therefore, destruction of the nerve will not results in a decrease of acetylcholinesterase
Hi, Let’s say a patient has BFS. A neurologist puts them under the EGM test. And connects the electrodes in the areas that the patient is experiencing twitches. During the EGM process, twitches happen obviously, at the patient is anxious and unlucky. How would the EGM result show the graphs during all three categories? Especially, in the first scenario where there is no contraction. Does EMG show some abnormal activity since the muscle was fasciculating during the test?
How sensitive are EMGs to specific diagnoses (als vs ms or cervical radiculopathy vs tunnel syndromes)? Or the diagnosis based on EMG and clinical findings?
Great video!! Can you please make the next video on changes during muscle contraction including thermal changes? Thank you so much for this video too....
@@MedicosisPerfectionalis I meant can you please do your next video on "changes occurring during muscle contraction" (which includes physical, electrical, chemical, histological and thermal changes that occur during muscular contraction).... Since there have been no video available over RUclips explaining thermal changes during muscle contraction specifically, I emphasised on "thermal changes"..... Hoping to get a video from you on it soon 😛
I had a crush injury to my hand 6 months ago, no broken bones, had tenosynovitis on an ultrasound, had an mri with structural problems. I’ve had pain in my hand the whole time early crps was a diagnosis until I had an independent medical assessment and was told I had guyon tunnel syndrome, for the past 3 months my arms been slowly getting sore and my shoulder and neck are effected aswell. I’m on anitryptidline but I have a feeling the nerve is just damaged, is that possible?
In denervation there's increase in amplitude on EMG due to compensatory hypertrophy. But on NCS, CMAP is reduced. So how do both the results co-relate? Also, on EMG can we differentiate axonal vs myelin injury and if so how to do it? For example in SMA
My EMG results in abnormal high amplitude in motor unit potentials (more than 2.5 times). Does it mean I have neurogenic disorder? Some sites mention that high amplitude could happen when there is re-innervation at present. You also mentioned in the video when one nerve lost its habitat, the surrounding nerves could take over. Mean there is hope for the muscle to work again. But then some sites say neurogenic atrophy couldn’t be reversed. I am stressed because I don’t think my PCP approach my matter with the right angle. And it takes months now and I’m in the middle of nowhere. The window frame is narrowing. Could you help me please?
I have had orders for four EMG's in the past two years. None have been done because of idiot neurologists. It's awesome knowing the details and explanation
I have denervation in my right arm and triceps I had an emg and was trying to understand the results… u explained this better than my doctor. U are amazing! Thank you for the video
I have a question regarding EMG and MVC. if MVC falls while EMG is maintained, would this indicate central or peripheral fatigue? And if EMG drops in average firing frequency; what will the explanation to this be?

neuro exam in a week and this just explained EMG better then any of the professors
Feel u bro, me neither. I have my summer practice and nobody showed interest to explain me what is going.
I’m in the same boat currently 😂
That's literally happen with me now🤓

How are you doing at the moment?
Simple and clear , I'll be checking in every day. Have a good one doc.☺️
Thank you, you too!
"This is the Joe Rogan experience" got me xd. Nice video, thanks.
My pleasure 😇
My favorite channel ❤
Thank you 😊
I really wish you will reach and surpass million subscribers. In Shaa Allah!
Thank you 🙏
I'm a new subscriber here 🙋 i liked ur work and explanation 👏 thank you so much doc ❤️
Thank you 🙏
Any problems face me during study , immediately i say where is medicosis ?? 😂😂❤❤❤❤❤
Thanks alot ❤❤❤
Most welcome!

How to straighten an EMG curvy baseline, please? I have a green and a red electrode I place on the patient along with a concentric needle
u are the best -really thx
My pleasure 😇
You got me laughinv at the "This is the Joe Rogan experience"
:)
How sensitive are EMGs to specific diagnoses (als vs ms or cervical radiculopathy vs tunnel syndromes)? Or the diagnosis based on EMG and clinical findings?
That was a lot of information. Thanks.
Thanks alot doc, really amazing, you make it look easy
Thank you 🙏
Great work
Thank you 🙏
Is the DMT in the picture of Joe Rogan an important factor in the muscular structure?
Thank you!!!
My pleasure 😇
can you do a video on crps nerve problems im being put in a wheelchair becuse its painfull to move
amazing as always, hope u can tell us ur methods 🥹💗💗
Thanks a lot ❤

Can you elaborate, please?

EMG can detect pinched nerve between C5-C6? MRI not found anything.

Super helpful! Thankyou ♥️🥳

If i understood, the Big amplitude on emg means MND disease ?
So, can we use ECG to measure brain electrical activity, to act like EEG?
Do you discuss Otitis media boss ??
Thank you 😊
Not yet!
Can you do it soon , I'm totally depends on your lectures after Allah , my exam after 2 wks ,
Please do it يسطا

How is acetylcholinesterase restored ?
It’s an enzyme (protein) that the human body synthesizes.
@@MedicosisPerfectionalis can you do a webinar on myofascial pain syndrome?
Just a powerlifter trying to study random shit…. now I’m scribbling notes to EMG levels at 1am
Thank you for watching:)

Thank you 🙏
are these notes included in the nerve physiology PDF?
They are in the muscle physiology PDFs, not the nerve physiology ones.
So fasciculation is not a normal phenomenon
I´m so happy this video exists. Nobody could really explain it to me in detail but now I understand! you really helped a future neurologist :)
I am honored!

Hi, my emg shows high amplitude too. But neurologist said nothing. What dors it mean for you, Do you have any explanations?
