Electrodiagnostic Testing of Entrapment Neuropathies: A Review of Existing Guidelines

This study reviews the existing, more or less, detailed EDX criteria or practice parameters that are suggested by consensus groups in peer-reviewed journals for the most common entrapment neuropathies: carpal tunnel syndrome, ulnar neuropathy at the elbow, common peroneal (fibular) neuropathy at the fibular head, and tibial neuropathy at the tarsal tunnel. It is concluded that future research is needed to develop and refine EDX guidelines in entrapment neuropathies.
