25
Q

McMurray test

A
  • meniscus tears
  • Your doctor will bend your knee, then straighten and rotate it. This puts tension on a torn meniscus. If you have a meniscus tear, this movement will cause a clicking sound.

Q

Nerve conduction studies

A

NCS : Demyelination vs Axonal neuropathy

  • Demyelination: Delayed or blocked nerve conduction velocity
  • Axonal injury: reduced in signal strength/ amplitude.
  • Myasthenia Gravis: Normal NCS, but decreased motor strength on repetitive stimuli in Muscle Conduction studies.
