Motor Unit Number Index (MUNIX) and the Chowkidar

Clinical neurophysiological techniques have been utilized in research for many years, ranging from the simplest measures, such as nerve conductions, to the more sophisticated, such as quantitative electromyography and motor unit number estimation (MUNE). Motor unit number index (MUNIX) is a relatively new and novel form of MUNE that combines the recording of a compound muscle action potential (CMAP) with surface-recorded EMG signal (Nandedkar et al 2004). Similar to other MUNE techniques, the CMAP is the conditio sine qua non of the technique (de Carvalho, et al 2018).
