NCV / EMG (Nerve Conduction & Electromyography) Training for Medical Professionals in San Juan
Medical professionals in San Juan and surrounding areas such as Guaynabo, Bayamón, and Carolina increasingly encounter patients with carpal tunnel syndrome, radiculopathy, and peripheral neuropathy. Accurate diagnosis in the office can reduce referrals and improve treatment timelines. The NCV / EMG course equips physicians, nurse practitioners, physician assistants, and qualified nurses with the practical knowledge to perform reliable nerve studies in a bilingual setting. Learning these techniques locally supports the growing demand for comprehensive, office-based neurodiagnostic services across Puerto Rico.
Participants will review peripheral nerve anatomy and identify landmarks for electrode placement before mastering equipment setup and calibration. Hands-on labs cover surface electrode placement for both upper and lower extremity studies, running standard NCV protocols, and interpreting waveforms. The course also introduces basic needle EMG examination, pattern recognition, and systematic documentation. Finally, attendees learn essential billing considerations for office-based testing, ensuring they can integrate neurodiagnostic services into their practice with confidence.
