  • Title: Follow-up of nerve conduction in chronic uremic patients during hemodialysis.
    Author: Leone M, Bottacchi E, Alloatti S, Nebiolo PE, Aimino M, Baldini S.
    Journal: Ital J Neurol Sci; 1992 May; 13(4):317-21. PubMed ID: 1601630.
    Abstract:
    We studied to evolution of nerve conduction during hemodialysis following 21 patients with chronic renal failure. Mean motor nerve conduction velocity (MCV) was significantly different at hemodialysis onset and 3 years later for both common peroneal nerve (44.5 and 41.0 m./sec.) and ulnar nerve (52.5 and 47.1 m./sec.). MCV decreased more in patients with low Kt/V (a depuration index) than in those with high Kt/V.
