Comparison of electrodiagnostic criteria for primary demyelination in chronic polyneuropathy.
Three sets of electrodiagnostic criteria for establishing primary demyelination in chronic polyneuropathy are evaluated. Sensitivity is assessed in 70 patients with clinically established chronic inflammatory demyelinating polyradiculoneuropathy (CIDP). The criteria use different abnormal values, one adjusts for the effects of axonal loss, while another relies only on conduction velocity. Howev...

BACKGROUND Current electrodiagnostic criteria for chronic inflammatory demyelinating polyneuropathy (CIDP) are research oriented favoring specificity over sensitivity. Application of such criteria in clinical practice may miss the diagnosis in potentially treatable patients. OBJECTIVES To analyze the electrophysiologic abnormalities in a cohort of patients with clinically defined CIDP, to com...

INTRODUCTION Acute-onset chronic inflammatory demyelinating polyneuropathy (A-CIDP) is an increasingly recognized CIDP subtype. Differentiating A-CIDP from Guillain-Barré syndrome (GBS) is challenging but important, because there are different treatment outcomes. METHODS We report 3 patients with A-CIDP who were initially diagnosed with severe GBS but were later confirmed to have CIDP based o...
متن کاملComparison of sensitivity and specificity among 15 criteria for chronic inflammatory demyelinating polyneuropathy.
INTRODUCTION There have been 15 formal sets of criteria published for the diagnosis of CIDP. No study to date has compared the sensitivity and specificity of all published criteria in the same patient population. METHODS We conducted a retrospective chart review of patients with CIDP (n = 56) and controls with diabetic polyneuropathy (n = 37) or amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (n = 39) who were...
