Limb dominance and motor conduction velocity of median and ulnar nerves.
نویسندگان
چکیده
The influence of one-sided limb dominance on the muscles, bones and motor conduction velocity of median nerve has been investigated and reported. We have undertaken a more detailed study of the conduction velocity of the efferent fibres of median and ulnar nerves of both sides in 25 right-handed and an equal number of left-handed subjects of both sexes in the age group of 18-30 years. A significant correlation between "handedness" and motor nerve conduction especially in median nerve, is shown by the results in both right handers and left handers.

Normative data of upper limb nerve conduction in Central India.
Nerve conduction study is an important tool to evaluate peripheral nerve abnormality. The primary purpose of this study was to provide normative electrophysiological data for commonly tested upper limb nerves in normal healthy adults. Nerve conduction studies were performed prospectively in upper limbs of 175 carefully screened healthy volunteers between the ages of 18 and 66 years using standa...

ABSTRACT The object of this study is determination of normative values of nerve conduction studies (NCS) among the population of Guilan Province. We selected 216 at the ages of 20-59yr on the basis of their medical histories and examination , and on condition that they had no factors or diseases interfering with nerve conduction by convenience sampling method. In this cross-sectional study, t...

متن کاملReliability of Upper Limb Neurodynamic Tests: Median, Radial and Ulnar Nerves
Objective: in the evaluation of peripheral nerves, upper limb neurodynamic tests are used to assess the mechanical sensitivity of the nerve. However, very little is known about the reliability of upper limb neurodynamic tests, especially for the radial and ulnar nerves. The aim of this study was to evaluate the reliability of neurodynamic tests of the upper extremities including median, radial ...
متن کاملElectrodiagnostic evaluation of peripheral nervous system changes in patients with multiple sclerosis.
BACKGROUND There is supportive evidence that multiple sclerosis (MS) could potentially affect the peripheral nervous system. We assessed peripheral sensory and motor nerve involvement in patients with MS by a nerve conduction velocity test. METHODS We studied 75 patients who had a relapsing-remitting or secondary progressive pattern. We measured amplitude, latency, conduction velocity, Hoffma...
