In October, interested doctors and medical assistants benefit from a practice-oriented compact seminar from our renowned training partner Mrs. Angela Wagner. Esumedics GmbH has been a partner of the training courses in Wiesenbach near Heidelberg, Germany, for a long time. Our esumedics EEG and EMG systems make practical work easier on site during the numerous practice phases thanks to their intuitive usability.
Intensive Training Program in Small Groups
From October 17th to 19th, 2024, our training partner “EMG Labor” once again organized a 3-day NCV/EMG compact seminar in its own training center near Heidelberg. The courses with speaker Angela Wagner are highly popular and regularly attract doctors, technicians and medical assistants from all over Germany, Austria, Luxembourg and Switzerland. Those who were able to get one of the coveted places were able to enjoy an intensive and varied training session in various neurography and electromyography techniques.
The training center in Wiesenbach is excellently equipped with six EMG devices. During the NCV/EMG compact course, the esumedics EMG system was in focus. Under the guidance of Mrs. Wagner, the participants were able to benefit from the efficient work and meaningful examination results of the esumedics EMG during training sessions in small groups. The software’s intuitive user interface makes it easier for users of all experience levels to perform various derivations and measurements quickly, safely and purposefully.
From Blink Reflex to Single Motor Unit Potential Analysis
The first day of the event started on Thursday after a warm welcome from Ms Wagner with electroneurography of the upper and lower extremities (motor and sensory). The group then devoted itself to topics such as fractional nerve conduction velocity, plexus transfers, and repetitive stimulation in cases of neuromuscular transmission disorders. In addition to theoretical basics, Mrs. Wagner illustrated all the main points with many examples, deepened the participants’ practical experience during various exercises on the device and encouraged the exchange of experiences among those present in various discussion groups.
Friday was initially devoted to the various reflexes (H-Reflex, Blink Reflex, jaw opening reflex) and F-Wave before Mrs. Wagner started with an interesting introduction to electromyography. The rest of the day’s program included spontaneous activity, single potential analysis, interference patterns, characteristic muscles and pathological findings. At the end of the compact seminar on Saturday, tremor frequency analysis as well as various NCV and EMG examinations with specific questions were on the program.
I appreciate the individual support and reliable personal service from the Esumedics team. In the often tightly scheduled day-to-day work in neurology and neurosurgery, robust and reliable technology with precisely matching accessories is required. This is only possible if production and development take place in Europe. Made in Germany stands for accessible contacts, short distances and speed.
