Electromyographic study to predict functional outcome of transforaminal epidural steroid injection in lumbosacral radiculopathy

Electromyographic study to predict functional outcome of transforaminal epidural steroid injection in lumbosacral radiculopathy

Context Epidural steriod injections (ESIs) are commonly used for managment of lumbosacral radiculopathy (LSR). Predicting outcomes after ESIs could be another valuable application of needle electromyography (EMG) in these patients. Aim The aim was to determine if EMG study can predict the functional...
