Résumé	Proprioceptive assessment is a bedside neurological examination evaluating the sense of joint position and movement, mediated by mechanoreceptors in muscles, tendons, and joints. Clinical testing of proprioception is essential for comprehensive neurological evaluation in conditions affecting sensory function, coordination, and balance, helping clinicians identify dorsal column disease, peripheral neuropathy, or cerebellar dysfunction.	Electromyography (EMG) and nerve conduction studies (NCS) are electrodiagnostic tests measuring electrical activity in muscles and nerves, providing objective data on neuromuscular function. These tests identify pathology in motor neurons, peripheral nerves, neuromuscular junctions, and muscles, helping clinicians diagnose conditions like peripheral neuropathy, myopathy, radiculopathy, and motor neuron disease when clinical examination is inconclusive.
