A method is described for performing needle electromyography of the diaphragm which is safe and causes little discomfort. It provides valuable information concerning neuropathies and myopathies which may affect the diaphragm, and complements information derived from phrenic nerve conduction studies. Firing patterns of motor unit potentials during spontaneous respiration identify upper motor neurone disorders causing respiratory insufficiency.
本文描述了一种用于膈肌针电极肌电图检查的方法,该方法安全且几乎不会引起不适。它能提供有关可能影响膈肌的神经病变和肌病的有价值信息,并补充从膈神经传导研究中获得的信息。自发呼吸时运动单位电位的发放模式可识别导致呼吸功能不全的上运动神经元疾病。
