Dr Ruchi Shrivastava, Dr Jyotsna Gumashta
Abstract :
Background: Complications of Diabetes Mellitus can be divided into vascular and nonvascular complications. The vascular complications are subdivided into microvascular and macrovascular.1. It is estimated that 35% to 45% of Type 2 diabetics have diabetic polyneuropathy (DPN)2.
Material & Method: Thestudy was conducted in 40 patients with clinically undetectable PeripheralNeuropathy of Type 2 DM and 40 age matched controls.
Results: Significant (p<0.05) increase of Distal latency and decrease in Conduction Velocity and Amplitude was seen in Superficial Peroneal Nerve in both lower limb of clinically undetectable peripheral neuropathy group as compared to controlswhich is an axonal type.
Summary–All electrophysiological variables of Superficial Peroneal nerve were affected negatively in all diabetic subjects under study.Nerve conduction studies can be utilised to analyse asymptomatic neuropathy in diabetics at an early stage..
