EMG Testing Process Naranja

Simple Process, Clear Results

Your EMG test starts with a consultation where we review your symptoms and medical history. We explain exactly what will happen during the test so you know what to expect.

The electromyography portion involves placing small electrodes on your skin and inserting a thin needle electrode into specific muscles. This measures the electrical activity in your muscles at rest and when you contract them. The nerve conduction study uses surface electrodes to measure how fast and strong nerve signals travel.

Most EMG tests take 30-60 minutes depending on how many areas we need to examine. You’ll get preliminary results right away, and we send a detailed report to your referring doctor within 24-48 hours. The results show exactly which nerves or muscles aren’t functioning properly and help determine the best treatment approach.

EMG testing involves some discomfort, but most patients tolerate it well. The nerve conduction study feels like small electrical pulses or static shocks. The needle EMG portion involves inserting thin electrodes into muscles, which feels similar to getting an injection. The discomfort is brief and manageable. We explain each step as we go and work at a pace that keeps you comfortable. Most patients say the anticipation is worse than the actual test, and they’re relieved to finally have answers about their symptoms.
Most EMG tests take 30-60 minutes depending on how many areas we need to examine. Simple tests for conditions like carpal tunnel syndrome are quicker, while comprehensive testing for multiple symptoms takes longer. You’ll get preliminary results immediately after the test, and we explain what we found in terms you can understand. The detailed written report goes to your referring doctor within 24-48 hours. Your doctor will then discuss the complete results and treatment options with you at your follow-up appointment.
EMG testing diagnoses a wide range of nerve and muscle disorders. Common conditions include carpal tunnel syndrome, sciatica, herniated discs, pinched nerves, diabetic neuropathy, peripheral neuropathy, muscle weakness disorders, and spinal stenosis. The test can also identify nerve damage from injuries, detect muscle diseases, and determine if symptoms are caused by nerve problems, muscle problems, or both. It’s particularly useful when you have unexplained numbness, tingling, weakness, or pain that hasn’t been clearly diagnosed through other methods.
Preparation for EMG testing is minimal. Avoid using lotions, oils, or creams on your skin the day of the test as they can interfere with the electrodes. Wear comfortable, loose-fitting clothing that allows easy access to the areas being tested. You can eat normally and take your regular medications unless specifically instructed otherwise. If you’re on blood thinners, let us know beforehand. Bring a list of your current medications and any previous test results related to your symptoms. The most important preparation is coming relaxed and ready to discuss your symptoms in detail.
Most insurance plans cover EMG testing when it’s medically necessary and ordered by your doctor. We accept most major insurance plans and will verify your coverage before your appointment. The test is typically covered as a diagnostic procedure, but your specific coverage depends on your plan’s terms and whether you’ve met your deductible. We provide transparent billing and will discuss any potential out-of-pocket costs upfront. Our billing team works with insurance companies to ensure proper authorization and can help you understand your benefits before the test.
EMG testing is very safe with minimal risks. You might experience slight soreness or bruising at needle insertion sites, which typically resolves within a day or two. Some patients feel tired after the test, especially if multiple muscle groups were examined. Serious complications are extremely rare. The test doesn’t use radiation or contrast dyes, making it safe for most patients. If you have a bleeding disorder, take blood thinners, or have a pacemaker, let us know beforehand as special precautions may be needed. The benefits of getting an accurate diagnosis far outweigh the minimal risks involved.
