Rehabilitation Medicine Clinic

If you have a neuromusculoskeletal disorder, the Rehabilitation Medicine Clinic provides medical evaluation and management of your rehabilitation care. Our coordinated outpatient services are designed to improve your function and quality of life.

Key Services

Evaluation

Electrodiagnostic studies may be used to evaluate you for injury or disease of muscle, nerve roots and peripheral nerves. This includes:

• Electromyography, which looks for disease or abnormalities in your nerves and/or muscles.
• Nerve conduction velocity studies, which show how well your nerves and muscles are working.

These studies are normally done together and are usually performed as a workup for complaints of pain, weakness, numbness or tingling.

Common problems tested include:

• Carpal tunnel syndrome
• Cervical and lumbar radiculopathy
• Ulnar neuropathy (cubital tunnel)
• Peripheral neuropathy (diabetes, alcohol)
• Trauma (facial nerve injury, brachioplexopathy, radial nerve injury from humeral fracture, peroneal neuropathy)
