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.
Interpretation of the test results. The speed of nerve conduction is related to the diameter of the nerve and the degree of myelination (a myelin sheath is a type of insulation around the nerve). A normally functioning nerve will transmit a stronger and faster signal than a damaged nerve. nerve conduction study (NCS), also called a nerve conduction velocity (NCV) test--is a measurement of the speed of conduction of an electrical impulse through a nerve. NCS can determine nerve damage and destruction. During the test, the nerve is stimulated, usually with surface electrode patches attached to the skin.
