MUAPs in motor neuron disease question

Jonathan Greenwald7/29/20 8:48 AM (CDT)

I have what may be a stupid question for many of you, but I do not see much motor neuron disease in my practice, so I wanted to ask the general question. I know that denervation and re-innervation are seen together in the same muscles in motor neuron disease, but are polyphasics a necessary component to the re-innervation, or would chronic neuropathic motor units also be considered enough? How often do you see polyphasia in motor neuron disease? Thanks so much for your help in advance!

AANEM Connect Terms of Use

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.
