Median and Ulnar Nerve Conduction Measurements in Patients with Symptoms of Diabetic Peripheral Neuropathy Using the NC-stat® System Study Design
Diabetes Technol Ther. 2004;6(6): 816-24.

Study Design
• 17 diabetic patients with clinical evidence of neuropathy were studied
• NCS were performed using the NC-stat System and compared against results from a neurologist-supervised study using standard NCS/EMG equipment.
• Results for ulnar and median distal motor latencies (DML) and F-wave were compared

Key Results
• Correlation coefficients were 0.96 (DML) and 0.89 (F-wave latency) for the median nerve and 0.70 (DML) and 0.78 (F-wave latency) for the ulnar nerve
• The rate of upper extremity nerve involvement was 25%
• NC-stat median and ulnar nerve conduction studies provide results similar to those obtained using standard NCS/EMG equipment
