Quantitative assessment of chemotherapy‐induced peripheral neurotoxicity using a point‐of‐care nerve conduction device
Chemotherapy-induced peripheral neurotoxicity (CIPN) seriously impairs patients' quality of life cumulatively and dose-dependently. Because assessment of CIPN usually depends on patients' subjective evaluation of symptoms, objective and quantitative measures are needed. We evaluated a point-of-care nerve conduction device (POCD), previously validated for the assessment of diabetic peripheral ne...
متن کاملassessment of the efficiency of s.p.g.c refineries using network dea
data envelopment analysis (dea) is a powerful tool for measuring relative efficiency of organizational units referred to as decision making units (dmus). in most cases dmus have network structures with internal linking activities. traditional dea models, however, consider dmus as black boxes with no regard to their linking activities and therefore do not provide decision makers with the reasons...
Estimation of Peripheral Nerve Conduction Velocity Distributions
A complete and accurate description of the conduction properties of the entire population of nerve fibers within a peripheral nerve bundle has long been an important objective of clinical neuromuscular electrophysiology. Access to such information would increase the sensitivity and specificity of neuromuscular electrodiagnostics, and provide improved means of assessing nerve development, growth...
متن کاملPeripheral nerve conduction in Miller Fisher syndrome.
Two cases of acute ophthalmoplegia, ataxia, and arreflexia with high CSF protein are reported (Miller Fisher syndrome). Detailed EMG and nerve conduction studies showed abnormal conduction in peripheral sensory fibres from the initial stages of the illness in both patients. Careful review up to 10 months after the onset was required to document the sensory conduction abnormality properly in one...
متن کاملNerve Excitability Assessment in Chemotherapy-induced Neurotoxicity
Chemotherapy-induced neurotoxicity is a serious consequence of cancer treatment, which occurs with some of the most commonly used chemotherapies(1,2). Chemotherapy-induced peripheral neuropathy produces symptoms of numbness and paraesthesia in the limbs and may progress to difficulties with fine motor skills and walking, leading to functional impairment. In addition to producing troubling sympt...
