Slow Repetitive Nerve Stimulation in Patients with Acute Organophosphorus Poisoning after Clinical Recovery

Background: Prolonged inhibition of acetylcholine esterase may lead to the intermediate syndrome. Neuromuscular junction (NMJ) dysfunction has been shown with repetitive nerve stimulation (RNS). Subclinical NMJ dysfunction may also occur. We aimed to examine the NMJ function following acute organophosphorus (OP) poisoning by using exercise modified slow RNS. Methods: A cohort study was conducte...

Repetitive nerve stimulation for the evaluation of peripheral nerve hyperexcitability.

OBJECTIVE To examine the utility of repetitive nerve stimulation (RNS) in the evaluation of peripheral nerve hyperexcitability (PNH). BACKGROUND PNH describes a group of disorders characterized by muscle cramps, twitching and stiffness. When severe, PNH may be characterized by the presence of continuous muscle fiber activity on routine needle electromyography (EMG). In milder forms of the dis...

Repetitive Nerve Stimulation in MuSK-Antibody-Positive Myasthenia Gravis

BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE Responses to repetitive nerve stimulation (RNS) in patients with muscle-specific tyrosine kinase (MuSK) antibody (Ab)-positive myasthenia gravis (MG) vary depending on the muscles tested. We analyzed the RNS responses of limb and facial muscles in MuSK-Ab-positive and acetylcholine receptor (AChR)-Ab-negative MG (MuSK MG) and MuSK-Ab-negative and AChR-Ab-negative [double-...
