The value of EMG in the evaluation of critical illness polyneuromyopathy:prospective case series

Original language description

OBJECTIVE: To study the relative incidence of critical illness polyneuropathy (CIP) and acute quadruplegic myopathy (AQM), and to verify the possibility to differentiate these entities using standard electrophysiological testing and sc. direct muscle stimulation (DMS). BACKGROUND: Several unique intensive care unit syndromes have been reported that can cause an acquired neuromuscular weakness. The most common of these is the CIP and the AQM. It is uncertain whether these conditions represent distinct disorders or a continuum of changes in a neuromuscular system. The electrophysiologic features of the AQM are similar to those of the CIP. Recently, Rich et al (Muscle & Nerve 1997;20:665-73) described the possibility to differentiate the AQM from the CIPusing DMS. DESIGN/METHODS: Study design: Case series study. Group: Nine consecutive critically ill patients (age 30 - 81 years) admitted to a neurological intensive care unit followed the inclusion criteria: At least two abnormal organ Se
