Abstract
Electrophysiological studies, particularly
nerve conduction studies (NCS) and electromyography (EMG), are crucial in
assessing and managing peripheral nerve injuries (PNIs). This literature review
explores the role of these studies in predicting recovery outcomes for patients
with conservatively managed PNIs. By analyzing recent findings, we highlight
how specific electrophysiological parameters correlate with clinical recovery,
guiding treatment decisions and rehabilitation strategies. The review
synthesizes data from various studies, demonstrating the predictive value of
electrophysiological markers such as compound muscle action potential (CMAP)
and sensory nerve action potential (SNAP). We also discuss limitations in
current methodologies and propose future research directions to optimize the
use of electrophysiological assessments in clinical practice.
