Diagnosing Nerve Damage with EMG [Example 1] | UE, Proximal to Elbow

The video tutorial explores the process of diagnosing nerve injuries using EMG studies. It begins by discussing different types of nerve injuries, such as demyelination and axonal injuries. The focus then shifts to identifying the location of the injury, particularly in relation to nerve roots and the brachial plexus. The tutorial explains how to analyze radiculopathy and rule it out by examining specific nerves and muscles. It also distinguishes between proximal and distal nerve damage, emphasizing the importance of understanding the brachial plexus structure. The video concludes with a detailed analysis of potential issues within the brachial plexus, providing a methodical approach to tracing nerve damage.
