RDING AN ELECTRODIAGNOSTICEXAMINATION. This should state the faradic and galvanic excitability and quali-tative and quantitative changes in the same muscle or nerve onboth sides of the body, as follows: (1) Faradic excitability—normal, weak, or lost. (2) Galvanic excitability. (a) Cathode closing contraction (CCC). (&■) Anode closing contraction (ACC). (c) Anode opening contraction (AOC). (d) Cathode opening contraction (COC). The examination should be begun in the order of the normalpolar formula, always writing the number of milliamperes requiredto produce the minimum contractions after each particular test.Any change from the normal polar formula will indicate a changein the muscle or nerve under examination. The quality andquantity of the reaction will determine the extent of the diseasedcondition existing at the time of the examination. Careful rec-ords should be kept of each electric examination for frequentcomparison. 134 PRACTICAL ELECTRO-THERAPEUTICS AND X-RAY THERAPY
