What is clinical neurophysiology?
What is clinical neurophysiology? ?
Clinical neurophysiology • Specialty
• Extension of neurology + special lab examinations
• To study
central nervous system (CNS)
peripheral nervous system (PNS)
autonomic nervous system (ANS)
• To treat
PD - Parkinson’s disease: DBS – deep brain stimulation
Epilepsy: DBS/VNS – vagal nerve stimulation/operation
Tumors, lesions: resective surgery
Spinal cord lesions, etc…
EEG – electroencephalography
EP – evoked potentials: visual/acustic/somatosensory/magnetic/cognitive
EMG - electromyography
ENG/NCS – electroneurography/nerve conduction study
RNS - repetitive nerve stimulation
Sleep studies: PSG – polysomnopgraphy, …
Autonomic nervous system: sympathetic skin respone test, RR-interval,…

Stimulator: Neuro Conn GmbH, Ilmenau, Germany
The effect of tDCS was measured on EEG, by quantifying the percentage of non-REM sleep containing spike-and-slow-waves.
The aim of the study to detect the possible therapeutic effect of cathodal tDCS on
the epileptiform EEG discharges (BESA) neuropsychological tests (if positive effect on EEG)
Materials and methods Subjects: CSWS patients (age>5 years) were recruited (10/4) tDCS:
cathodal tDCS (1.0 mA, 20 min) over the focus current density: 30 µA/ cm2 electrodes: 0,9% NaCl (35 cm2) control stimulation = sham stimulation
