By considering all aspects of a person which may impact daily function, Physiatry is about working towards improving the life of my patients.
We get to focus on goals, and ultimately what matters most to our patients.

First rotation of PGY2 @UofT_Physiatry on a cardiac rehab rotation at @TRI_UHN. Where else can you get a quick workout between patients!?
Thank you to the @TorontoRehab staff for letting me test out my VO2.
Any guesses what it was?

Season 3 Episode 2: Sleep 😴
Dr. @bmarcello13 explains how sleep is an active, restorative experience that optimizes function while awake. Sleep is tied to mood & pain, and plays an important role in cognition, emotion, injury & chronic disease.

Our team at goodlabs.studio/aboutus recently published an open-sourced dataset of simulated patient-physician conversations to train NLP models.
Special thank you to @NationalDefence for funding our Syndrome Anomaly Detection System project.

It’s hard to “out nutrition” inactivity, but exercise is the forgiver of many sins!

KEY POINT: Nerve conduction studies (NCS) and Electromyography (EMG) are extensions of the physical exam. The investigations need to be tailored to a specific clinical question we are trying to answer.

Hennemans size principle helps understand motor unit recruitment and configuration. Small units are recruited first, followed by larger units when increasing muscle force. Increased action potential frequency can also increase force.

Electromyography involves a needle into a muscle belly. Measures insertional and spontaneous activity, motor unit potential configuration, and recruitment pattern.

Nerve conduction studies contain motor and sensory components measuring latency, conduction velocity, and amplitude.
Broadly latency and velocity are related to myelin (myelin increases conduction speed)
Amplitude = # of axons (how much signal do we see)
