G1 active recording electrode
G1: medial forearm
Place G1 on the medial forearm.

Sensory study
Upper limb
Medial antebrachial cutaneous sensory nerve conduction study
Record from the medial forearm and stimulate at the elbow between the medial epicondyle and distal biceps tendon.
01 · Placement
G1, G2, stimulation and ground landmarks
G2 reference electrode
G2: 3 cm distal bar electrode
Use a bar electrode with G2 3 cm distal to G1.
Table 2 · p.373 ↗Stimulation site
Stimulation: between medial epicondyle and biceps tendon
Stimulate midway between the medial epicondyle and distal biceps tendon, 10 cm from G1.
Table 2 · p.373 ↗Ground region
Ground electrode region
AANEM places the ground between the stimulating and recording electrodes. The model shows a usable medial forearm region, not a single mandatory point.
