Conduction Velocity of Ulnar Nevre after Local Musular Exercise

The effect of tubocurarine on ulnar nerve conduction velocity.

Nerve conduction velocity was studied in the ulnar nerve of human subjects during general anaesthesia. An increase in velocity of between 1.9 and 4.8 per cent occurred following the administration of paralytic doses of tubocurarine to subjects receiving nitrous oxide, oxygen and halothane anaesthesia in whom ventilation was controlled. This increase in velocity did not appear to be related to a...

Motor unit conduction velocity during sustained contraction after eccentric exercise.

BACKGROUND Eccentric contractions induce muscle fiber damage that is associated with a decreased capacity to generate voluntary force and increased fiber membrane permeability. Changes in fiber membrane permeability results in cell depolarization that is expected to have an effect on the action potential propagation velocity of the muscle fibers. PURPOSE The aim of the study was to investigat...

Serial ulnar nerve conduction velocity measurements in normal subjects.

Interrater Repeatability of Motor Nerve Conduction Velocity of the Ulnar Nerve.

OBJECTIVE The purpose of this study was to obtain data on interrater repeatability of the motor nerve conduction velocity (NCV) of the ulnar nerve of different segments, ulnar distal motor latency (DML), and compound muscle action potential (CMAP) amplitudes. DESIGN Twenty-four healthy volunteers were examined in consecutive order. Ulnar motor NCV of different segments, ulnar DML, and CMAP am...

A Study of the Conduction Velocity of Sensory Fibers 'of the Ulnar Nerve in leprosy!

Measurement of peripheral nerve conduction in man dates back to von HelmhQltz ( 1:' . Ili) and now forms a part of routine clinical examination in various neuropathic conditions. Prominent in this group is leprosy, but it is surprising to note in an editorial by Wade ( 18) that as late as 1954 sufficient information on the conduction velocity of peripheral nerves in leprosy was not available. I...
