Combined 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...

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 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...
متن کاملNerve 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 کاملSigns and symptoms versus nerve conduction studies to diagnose diabetic sensorimotor polyneuropathy: Cl vs. NPhys trial.
The purpose was to test whether physicians can validly and reproducibly diagnose diabetic sensorimotor polyneuropathy (DSPN). Twelve physicians assessed 24 patients with diabetes mellitus (DM) on consecutive days (576 examinations) with physical features and voice disguised. Results were compared to gold standard 75% group diagnosis (dx) and a nerve conduction score (Sigma5 NC nds). Masking of ...
