Introduction Electroneurography (ENG) is a neurological diagnostic method that determines the ability of nerves to transmit electrical impulses and thus to excite a muscle, for example. This technique allows nerves to be stimulated and their electrical activity to be conducted superficially so that more precise statements can be made about the neurological basis of a … Electroneurography (ENG)
Pain In electroneurography, nerves are stimulated by small electrical impulses in order to measure the conduction of electrical excitation and to be able to assess the functional efficiency of the corresponding nerve. The current impulses are usually delivered by electrodes glued to the skin. This is not painful. Rarely, small needles are pricked into the … Pain | Electroneurography (ENG)
Carpal tunnel syndrome In the so-called carpal tunnel syndrome, there is a bottleneck for the median nerve on the flexor side of the wrist. The structures are pinched under the retinaculum flexorum, a connective tissue plate. Possible causes include very one-sided overloading of the wrist or inflammation in this area. This causes the tissue to … Carpal tunnel syndrome | Electroneurography (ENG)
