Nerve conduction in alcoholic polyneuropathy.
SYMMMS of alcoholic Peripheral neuropathy were first recognized by ' S Lettsom (1787) who described hypermsthesiae and paralysis, affecting the ` r legs more than the arms. He, and later Jackson (1822), delineated the late ^ ^y ^ G^ `^ stage of peripheral nerve affection. Much clinical observation since then ','^ .c 0 has shown that the neuropathy in alcoholics varies widely in seve rity. We S ...
متن کاملCombined nerve conduction index in diabetic polyneuropathy.
UNLABELLED Diabetic polyneuropathy can be confirmed by nerve conduction studies. The data can be analyzed in the form of a combined index instead of individual parameters. METHODS The combined index included five parameters of nerve conduction studies commonly used for evaluation of polyneuropathies. We evaluated sensitivity in 100 diabetic patients with suspected polyneuropathy, and specific...
متن کاملSensory conduction of the sural nerve in polyneuropathy.
Using surface electrodes, sensory nerve action potentials (SAP) have been recorded in the proximal segment (mid-calf to lateral malleolus) and the distal segment (lateral malleolus to toe 5) of the sural nerve and in the median nerve in 79 control subjects. The values obtained for the distal segment of the sural nerve varied widely and in seven apparently normal subjects no SAP could be disting...
متن کاملTwo-segment sural nerve conduction measurements in polyneuropathy.
Sensory conduction velocity of the sural nerve was measured in 50 normal subjects and 100 consecutive patients with suspected or established diagnosis of peripheral neuropathy. The sensory action potential was recorded by the orthodromic technique for the distal and the proximal segments. In the patient group, sensory conduction of the proximal segment appeared to be more consistent and easier ...
متن کاملModeling nerve conduction criteria for diagnosis of diabetic polyneuropathy.
INTRODUCTION In this study we aimed to determine which criteria are valid for nerve conduction (NC) diagnosis of typical diabetic sensorimotor polyneuropathy (DSPN). METHODS Eight criteria were assessed from among diabetes databases, the Rochester Diabetic Neuropathy Study (RDNS, N = 456), and in healthy subjects (RDNS-HS, N = 330). RESULTS In the RDNS, the most frequent abnormal attributes...
