Är koffein beroende framkallande?

Koffein är inte beroendeframkallande på samma sätt som t ex nikotin även om en del människor som är vana vid att dricka kaffe och plötsligt slutar kan drabbas av tillfällig huvudvärk. Det tar dock endast några dagar för kroppen att ställa om sig och det är aldrig något problem med att ändra sin kaffekonsumtion.

What is an EMG test?

Dr. Cushman: So EMG talks about electromyography, which is looking at the electrical signals from the muscle. And the point of that is really to examine how well the muscles are working, how well the nerves are working, that go to those muscles. And there are two parts to the test. One is called the nerve conduction study.

What are the side effects of an EMG test?

In very rare cases, a person may experience swelling of the soft tissues (lymphedema) or a skin infection near the puncture site after a needle EMG test. Some people may experience more discomfort or pain during an NCV test.

Why is an audio-amplifier used in an EMG test?
