DVT after an EMG

Chris Rink1/23/19 4:21 PM (CST)
A patient I performed an UE EMG was diagnosed with an UE DVT two days after the exam. I could not identify DVT listed as a risk factor or identify with a (brief) internet search of a DVT as a complication of an EMG. Has anyone had DVT associated to an EMG?

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.
