Description
The Neuromuscular (NM) Self-Assessment Examination (SAE) is a great resource for brushing up on NM knowledge and skill sets. SAEs make excellent study guides for maintaining certifications or preparing for board examinations. They are also valuable teaching and program assessment tools for residency and fellowship programs. The NM SAE has 100 multiple-choice questions per examination and tests background knowledge and the application of neurophysiologic, pathologic, and other techniques to the diagnosis, evaluation, and treatment of patients with neuromuscular disorders. This exam covers the spectrum of disorders that affect the motor neuron, nerve root, plexus, peripheral nerve, neuromuscular junction, and muscle.
Diplomate Engagement
The Neuromuscular Self-Assessment Examination committee meets two times a year. As a part of their meeting agenda, the committee reviews the questions from the examination database and addresses gaps in knowledge. When reviewing questions, the committee discusses the questions’ relevance to current practices in the neuromuscular field, and creates new or updates existing questions as needed.
