“…Nerve conduction studies before and during therapy with thalidomide have revealed that monitoring the sensory nerve action potential (SNAP) amplitude may be useful for detecting neuropathy; a decline in amplitude of 40% compared to the baseline was usually associated with clinical symptoms of neuropathy 101. Another study found that monitoring F waves is useful to detect early thalidomide neuropathy; F‐wave chronodispersion may be seen before changes in sensory amplitudes 123…”

“…166 Furthermore, it has been found that smaller diameter motor nerve fibers may be affected even before changes in sural sensory nerve action potentials occur. 183 Although dose-dependent development of neuropathy has been suggested, 171 some have implied that it depends primarily on personal susceptibility.…”

“…Auch wenn zumeist nur sehr geringe Veränderungen der motorischen Nervenleitungen gefunden werden, weist eine Verlängerung der kürzesten F-Wellen-Latenzen auf eine Mitbeteiligung motorischer Fasern hin. Dies tritt möglicherweise schon vor einer sensiblen Amplitudenreduktion auf [23,24], allerdings sind die hier erwähnten Fallzahlen zu gering um zuverlässige Empfehlungen abzuleiten.…”
