The purpose of this study was to establish the incidence of MRI-detectable hematomas following paraspinal EMG. We provide a retrospective review of patients who underwent paraspinal EMG and subsequent concordant level spine MRI. A total of 370 charts (431 MRIs) met the inclusion criteria. No paraspinal hematomas were observed. These results should further the development of evidence-based guidelines for patients who have greater-than-normal bleeding risk and support the notion that paraspinal EMG is a relatively safe procedure.
本研究旨在确定脊柱旁肌电图(EMG)后 MRI 可检测到的血肿的发生率。我们对接受脊柱旁 EMG 检查和随后进行相应水平脊柱 MRI 检查的患者进行了回顾性分析。共有 370 份病历(431 份 MRI)符合纳入标准。未观察到脊柱旁血肿。这些结果应进一步制定针对出血风险较高的患者的循证指南,并支持脊柱旁 EMG 是一种相对安全的操作的观点。
