It is important to understand the principles of normal neuromuscular transmission when using neuromuscular blocking agents. The neuromuscular junction consists of the motor-nerve terminus, the ...

Jump rope can not only improve endurance, but also doubles as a plyometric workout, which boosts tendon stiffness and trains ...

The University of Alabama at Birmingham (UAB) provides an ACGME accredited, one year, neuromuscular medicine fellowship program. Our fellowship offers comprehensive training in clinical neuromuscular ...

The benefits of early continuous neuromuscular blockade in patients with acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) who are receiving mechanical ventilation remain unclear. We randomly assigned ...

Objective The aim of this study was to determine key components in neuromuscular training that optimise ACL injury reduction in female athletes using meta-regression analyses. Design Systematic review ...

Neuromuscular blockade is an essential component of modern anaesthetic practice, enabling muscle relaxation during surgery and facilitating procedures such as tracheal intubation and minimally ...

Autoimmune neuromuscular diseases may sound complex, but understanding them is the first step to getting the right care and support. Conditions such as Lambert-Eaton myasthenic syndrome (LEMS), ...

The muscles of the body move because of signals sent by the nervous system, which also takes in sensory information and relays it to the brain. Muscle and nerve cells meet at the neuromuscular ...
