A Preliminary Assessment on Reproducibility of Triggered Electromyography During Selective Dorsal Rhizotomy
The excellent reproducibility of trigger-EMG, as demonstrated by its consistent activation of specific spinal motor circuits, provides a solid foundation for future research. Further investigation into the underlying electrophysiological mechanisms of this reproducibility could inform the development of more refined stimulation protocols and data analysis techniques. These advancements hold promise for enhancing the accuracy of dorsal root selection during SDR and ultimately improving clinical outcomes for patients with spastic CP.
