Comparison of Automated and Manual F-wave Latency Measurements
Clin Neurophysiol. 2005 Feb; 116(2):264-9
Study Design
• 55 Subjects (80 limbs)
• Twenty consecutive peroneal F-waves were recorded on each limb
using the NC-stat
• NC-stat F-wave latency results were compared with those assigned
manually on the same datasets by a neurologist with recognized expertise
in F-waves
Key Results
• Correlation of NC-stat F-wave median latencies to the expert’s
manual assignment was 0.99
• For individual F-wave latency measurements, the correlation was
0.98
• All NC-stat results were within 5% of the neurologist’s
median F-wave latency
