  • Title: [Value of galvanic skin response in assessment of diabetic autonomic neuropathy].
    Author: Li YQ, Wang SJ, Gao F, Deng QK.
    Journal: Di Yi Jun Yi Da Xue Xue Bao; 2004 Oct; 24(10):1140-2, 1146. PubMed ID: 15501735.
    Abstract:
    OBJECTIVE: To explore a method for early detection of diabetic autonomic neuropathy (DAN) on the basis of analysis of galvanic skin response (GSR). METHODS: In 25 randomly selected diabetic inpatients (14 with clinical DAN symptoms), GSR signals were collected from the fingers of both hands based on Virtual Instrumental WorkBench-LabVIEW and compared with those acquired from normal subjects. RESULTS: The GSR indices of patients either with or without DAN were different from those of normal subjects, and even in the same patients, the changes of these indices after clinical treatment were also obvious. CONCLUSION: GSR detection and analysis can help understand the impairment of the autonomic system and facilitate DAN assessment.
