SUMMARY: Diagnosing and characterizing myoclonus can be challenging. Many authors agree on the need to complement the clinical findings with an electrophysiological study to characterize the movements. Besides helping to rule out other movements that may look like myoclonus, electrophysiology can help localize the source of the movement. This article aims to serve as a practical manual on how to do a myoclonus study. For this purpose, the authors combine their experience with available evidence. The authors provide detailed descriptions of recording poly-electromyography, combining electroencephalography and electromyography, Bereitschaftspotentials, somatosensory evoked potentials, and startle techniques. The authors discuss analysis considerations for these data and provide a simplified algorithm for their interpretation. Finally, the authors discuss some factors that they believe have hindered the broader use of these useful techniques.
