To carry out complex treatment in the institution, there is a need for such a device as an electromyograph. This device does not exist at all.

Electromyography (EMG) is a highly informative method of assessing the function of nerves and muscles of the body. With the help of special computerized equipment, the doctor records the contractions of the muscles of the arms and legs, measures the speed of conduction of impulses along the motor and sensitive fibers of the nerves, evaluates the activity of individual structures of the brain and spinal cord. This allows you to find the place where the damage occurred and make an accurate diagnosis in the shortest possible time and draw up a plan for the necessary treatment and rehabilitation. Moreover, the patient needs to have control examinations from time to time to diagnose the person's condition.
