“…Conduction velocity and onset latency did not elicit statistically significant changes, but the conduction velocity demonstrated a trend toward a decrease (101.2 m/sec vs 85.1 m/sec), and onset latency showed a consequent trend toward an increase (0.50 msec vs 0.59 msec) after injury. These MNG results are consistent with previous studies, all of which, using the same experimental model, show this decrease in compound action current amplitude of approximately 60% in the proximal stump at 12 weeks post-reconstruction (Kuypers et al, 1993;1998a;1998b;1995). Other authors, using similar ENG experiments, found that compound action potential amplitudes did not reach control values over 150 days after resuturing the nerve, but remained at 50% to 60% of the control.…”
