Motor Nerve Conduction Studies
tion techniques, it is important to pursue more specialized methods of evaluating the peripheral nervous system. Additionally, nerves requiring needle excitation and less commonly studied nerves are of importance. From time-to-time patients may present with lesions affecting specific sensory branches that yield small amplitude responses or require averaging techniques to better define the desir...
متن کاملMotor nerve conduction velocity studies of the ulnar nerve in patients with leprosy.
Many of the disabling fea tures of leprosy ~re caused by peripheral nerve impairment involving both sensory and motor modalities. Pathologic changes in an affected nerve are usually seen at a site where the nerve passes over a bone or joint, or where the nerve is superficial. In the arm the most commonly involved nerves, in order of frequency, are the ulnar at the elbow and the median at the wr...
متن کاملMotor nerve conduction velocity in spinal muscular atrophy of childhood.
The ulnar and posterior tibial conduction velocities were measured in 29 children with spinal muscular atrophy, 14 of whom had the servere form of the disease. The ulnar nerve velocity was slow in 12 of the 14 severely affected infants, but normal or fast in 11 of 14 children less severely affected. The corresponding results for the posterior tibial nerve were slow velocities in 11 of 12 infant...
متن کاملMotor nerve conduction velocity in very preterm infants.
Sufficient reference values for motor nerve conduction velocity (MNCV) in very preterm infants are not yet available. In the placebo infants within an L-thyroxine supplementation trial, born at less than 30 weeks' gestation, ulnar and posterior tibial MNCV measurements were performed shortly after birth. Repeated measurements were done at 2 weeks, at term, and at 6 months corrected age. Cross-s...
متن کاملMaximum motor nerve conduction velocity in XYY males.
1. Maximum motor nerve conduction velocities were determined under standard conditions for the median and ulnar nerves in the right forearm in males: (a) from the general population, (b) from a subnormality hospital, and (c) in males with the XYY sex chromosome abnormality. Distal latencies for these nerves were also measured. 2. No significant differences in maximum peripheral motor nerve cond...
