Nerve Root Stimulation In The Diagnosis Of Lumbosacral Radiculopathy, Chein-Wei Chang, I-Nan Lien
Nerve Root Stimulation In The Diagnosis Of Lumbosacral Radiculopathy, Chein-Wei Chang, I-Nan Lien
Rehabilitation Practice and Science
Direct nerve root stimulation was compared with needle electromyography (EMG) in 40 patients suspected with L5 or S1 radiculopathy. Monopolar needle inserted into deep paraspinal muscles was used for the nerve root stimulation. The minimal latency, amplitude and area of negative phase of compound muscle action potential from myotomal muscles were recorded with an assistance of a computer program. Significant abnormality was considered in patients more than 2SD from control mean values. In 17 patients with a clinical evidence of radiculopathy, needle EMG wes abnormal in 10(58.8%)but nerve stimulation test showed an abnormal amplitude difference in 16(94.1%)and an abnormal area …

Rehabilitation Practice and Science
Swimming is one of the best' exercises for poliomyelitis patients. 31 members-in YMCA swimming training program participated in this study. We used the paired-t test to analize the changes of cardiopulmonary function changes.After 3 months training course, there was increase in pulse rate, systolic blood pressure and rate-pressure product at arm-crank rate of both 60rpm and 90rpm. The maximal insipiratory pressure (Pi max) and maximal expiratory pressure (Pi max) were significantly increased. The decrease in resting pulse rate and vital capacity were statistically insignificant (P:0.05). The severity of the scoliosis in polimomyelitis could affect the result of swimming training, but …

Rehabilitation Practice and Science
Twenty five comminuted unstable fractures of femur or tibia were treated with the Grosse-Kempf interlocking nail. The biomechanical properties of interlicking nail are quiet different from the intramedullary nail The osteosynthesis material assumes the full load in static interlicking nail, though in Kuntscher nail, the osseous cylinder itself can vear the weight. Partial weight-bearing is permitted in early stage. Full weight-bearing is allowed after the dynamization while the bridging callus are formed. Too early weight-bearing will produce bending or fracture of the nail. Excellent or good result were obtained in 88.9% of the patients of femoral fractures, and 81.3% of …
