Evaluation of F-wave study in assessment of neuropathy among hypothyroid patients with or without clinical neuro deficit- A case control study
Abstract:Introduction: Nerve conduction studies (NCS) assess neuropathy in thyroid dysfunction. Entrapment neuropathies and general sensorimotor polyneuropathies are often diagnosed in these patients. F waves are usually prolonged in generalized and entrapment neuropathies. Hypothyroid patients often present with carpel tunnel syndrome. Objective: To evaluate and compare F wave study variables in hypothyroid patients with normal subjects. To assess neuropathies in hypothyroid patients, by using Fwave study as an indepe… Show more
