Abstract
Parameters related to conduction velocity are more commonly assessed during CMAP studies excluding amplitude information. Our study suggests that the pressure on measurement electrodes could be responsible for variability in amplitude information during CMAP studies. A new device and method showed promise in CMAP amplitude reliability.
