  • CLINICAL ANALYSIS OF ELECTRICAL STIMULATION THRESHOLD OF NERVE FASCICLE DURING SELECTIVE POSTERIOR RHIZOTOMY

    Abstract This experiment was to study the feasibility from direct observation of muscle contraction of the lower extremity fromelectrical stimulation threshold of nerve fascicle in identifying the Iα intrafusal afferent fibers during selective posterior rhizotomy (SPR) and to investigate the clinical relationship between the muscle spasm and the electrical stimulation of nerve fascicles. The electrical stimulation threshold of all nerve fascicles in 36 cases during SPR were analysed statistically. The results showed that there was a significant difference between the electrical stimulation threshold of the severed nerve fascicles and intact nerve fascicles no matter the nerve root or each posterior nerve rootlet was examined. It was simple and reliable for surgeons to identify correctly the Iα intrafusal afferent fibers intraoperatively from direct observation of the electrical stimulation threshold of nerve fascicle.
