Clinical neurophysiology service area
We perform diagnostic outpatient examinations of the peripheral and central nervous system, the sensory system and sleep at the Clinical Neurophysiology Unit in the Tyks Lighthouse Hospital and on an emergency basis at different wards in Tyks.
Evoked potential and sense threshold examinations
Evoked potential examinations measure the functionality of the sensory tracts and the neural pathways in the peripheral and central nervous systems by measuring electrical responses to various external sensory stimuli. Sensory threshold examinations are used to study the sensory system…
Electroencephalogram (EEG)
An EEG is used to study disorders of the brain, especially different types of seizures and disorders of consciousness. The examination measures electrical activity in the brain, eye movements, muscle tension under the chin, breathing movements and heart rate. The examination also includes…
Electroneuromyography (ENMG)
ENMG studies diseases of the peripheral nervous system and muscles.
Sleep and vigilance tests
Examinations of sleep and vigilance are used to study conditions such as sleep apnoea (abnormal breathing patterns during sleep), abnormal daytime fatigue and disorders of excessive somnolence due to other causes, prolonged insomnia and various types of seizure symptoms during sleep.
