Little literature exists describing resident training in peripheral electrodiagnosis (EDX).
U.S. residency programs in neurology and physical medicine and rehabilitation (PM&R) were surveyed by the AANEM (American Association of Neuromuscular and Electrodiagnostic Medicine) on specific features of EDX training.
Ninety-seven programs responded to the survey. Training duration was 4-8 weeks in most neurology programs; training averaged 22 weeks in PM&R programs. EDX experience was required in all PM&R and in 90% of neurology programs. Results varied greatly for the residency years of training, pulling of residents for other responsibilities, participation in continuity clinics, number of teaching physicians, number of needle examinations performed, organization of nerve conduction training, written/oral examinations, muscle/nerve biopsy reviews, and training materials.
This survey demonstrated large variability in training of neurology and PM&R residents in peripheral EDX.
关于周围神经电诊断（EDX）的住院医师培训，相关文献较少。
美国神经病学和物理医学与康复（PM&R）专业的住院医师培训项目接受了美国神经肌肉与电诊断医学协会（AANEM）的调查，内容涉及 EDX 培训的具体特点。
97 个项目对调查做出了回应。在大多数神经病学项目中，培训时长为 4-8 周；在 PM&R 项目中，培训时长平均为 22 周。所有 PM&R 项目和 90%的神经病学项目都要求有 EDX 经验。在培训年限、为其他职责抽调住院医师、参与连续性诊所、带教医生人数、进行的针检数量、神经传导培训组织、书面/口头考试、肌肉/神经活检复习以及培训材料方面，结果差异很大。
这项调查表明，神经病学和 PM&R 住院医师在周围 EDX 培训方面存在很大的差异。
