Abstract: Apparatus and methods are provided for the assessment of neuromuscular function. Using an apparatus of the invention, stimuli are applied to a nerve that traverses the wrist of an individual. The stimuli are applied at a point that is proximal to the wrist. Stimulation of the nerve causes a muscle innervated by that nerve to respond. The muscle response generates a myoelectric potential, which is detected by an apparatus of the invention at a point that is proximal to the wrist. The delay between stimulation of a nerve and detection of a muscular response to that stimulation is processed to indicate an assessment of neuromuscular function. For example, a sufficient delay between application of stimulus and muscle response may indicate the presence of Carpal Tunnel Syndrome.
