Nerve Conduction Practice Questions with complete Solutions Graded A+ When the synaptic vesicles are electrically stimulated by a nerve impulse, synaptic vesicles gravitate to the outer membrane of the presynaptic wall and release acetylcholine into the synaptic cleft. The Ach molecules migrate to the postsynaptic cells where they attach to the specific receptors. When enough neurotransmitters are received by the receptors to overcome the firing threshold a CMAP is generated causing muscle cont...

Introduction to Nerve Conduction Studies definition: analysis and interpretation of electrical signals produced by depolarization of excitable nerve and muscle cells - ANS clinical electrophysiology what terminology to use? - electrodiagnostic testing (EDx) - electroneuromyography (ENMG) - EMG/NCS - most common term people use - electrophysiologic testing - technically more correct term - ANS benefits of electrophysiologic testing: - correlating with physical...
