What is it indicated for?
Electromyographic (EMG) needle electrodes are monopolar needles intended to be inserted into the muscle or nerve tissue to sense bioelectrical signals. This device is an accessory to the electromygraphy machine, which is for use in connection with electromyography studies (recording the intrinsic electrical properties of skeletal muscles). EMG electrodes are indicated for use by or on the order of a licensed physician and intended for single patient use, only.
Indications for use read by OCR from a scanned FDA 510(k) statement, so letters may be misread. Check the PDF before quoting it.
