Krabbe disease
Hi friends, new attending here looking for any advice:
I was asked to do NCS under sedation for a 3 month old with krabbe disease. I have not seen a patient with this diagnosis before nor have I done a NCS on a baby this small. Any suggestions are appreciated! I will likely also bring the ultrasound with me, more out of my own curiousity as I have read that the cross sectional areas of the nerves can correlate with NCS findings and I am working on incorporating NMUS into my practice. Any tips/suggestions for the US part is also greatly appreciated!

I enjoy participating in the AANEM Connect Forum for a number of reasons. There are very fundamental questions posed on a frequent basis that cause me to pause and ask myself, ‘Why didn’t I think of that?’ Also, I continue to learn new things when others contribute their thoughts and experiences. Connect is an excellent opportunity for members to interact and to address any topic, including those that may not be discussed at an annual meeting or journal article.
