in the early 1900s (Davis 12). These periods in order are the early period, the ebb tide period, the. period of reawakened interest in primaries and the system of popular appeal, which is also. known as the post reform period (Davis 12).
With nerve conduction studies, you may feel a quick, burning pain, a tingling feeling, and a twitching of the muscle each time the electrical pulse is given. It feels like the kind of tingling you feel when you rub your feet on the carpet and then touch a metal object. The tests make some people anxious.
There are 2 parts to the test, nerve conduction testing, and an optional needle exam (see below). In the nerve conduction studies (NCS), various nerves, usually in the arm or leg, will be stimulated with a small, harmless electrical pulse. The response from your nerve is recorded by an EMG machine. By testing a number of nerves, a generalized assessment of your peripheral nerves and muscles can be made.
