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, the motor amplitude (AMP), nerve conduction velocity (NCV), distal latency (DL) and sensory amplitude, and peak latency (PL) of Median , Ulnar, and Radial in nondominant hand were determined. %95 was recognized as cut-off and normal values; and mann- whiteney test (α= 0.05) was used to compare means. 5% of Median, Ulnar, and Radial sensory AMP in nondominant hand were 37.2 , 33, and 18.9 UV, respectively. 5% of motor AMP Were 5.2 , 4.5, and 2.5 MV , respectively. The 5th percentile of motor NCV were 54, 52.3, and 51.8 M/S , respectively. 95% of sensory PL were 3.8, 3.9, and 3.1 ms , respectively. 95% of motor DL were 4.2 , 3.9, and 3.3 ms , respectively. There has been no significant difference in sex about in nerve conduction, but there has been a significant difference in motor AMP and NCV , and sensory AMP study results between age groups of under and over 60 (P<0.001). As regards to functional conditions of this center, we present the above-mentioned values as the normal values for use in conduction nerve studies in Poursina Electrodiagnostic center; Rasht.
