ABSTRACT

 

Background: One of the complications of diabetes is Peripheral neuropathy that becomes the source of frailty and indisposition. Metabolic malfunction is the root cause in diabetes that target nerve damage.

Aim: To evaluate electrophysiological case research with respect to effect of diabetics on nerves and to link it along with blood sugar

Methods: Assessment of nerves related to of upper limb was carried out for motor nerve by aid of computerized system and surface electrodes in 40 male individuals suffering from type 2 and 40 healthy males. The ulnar and median nerve was selected for case research. Parameters that were being discussed included conduction velocity and distal latency

Results: Diabetics have increased distal delay and reduced conduction velocity. These variables were linked to blood sugar levels in diabetics.

Conclusions: There is affect to nerves in case of diabetes as shown by poor motor nerve function and depicted via testing electro physiologically. Increase in sugar blood levels is associate with damage to nerves.

Keywords: Electrophysiological tests, Conduction velocity, Peripheral neuropathy, Diabetes,
