Abstract

Regarding the diagnostic value of F.WAVE in evaluation of a variety of neurologic disorders, and due to lack of NORMAL VALUES of F.WAVE in Iran, we measured F.WAVE LATENCY of median and ulnar nerves in 50 healthy individuals in Shiraz, in 1997.This descriptive study was carried out on 50 volunteers in whom no abnormality found in neurologic examination. F.WAVE was recorded with subjects in sitting position and room temperature by Dantec Neuromatic 2000c electromyography.Stimulation was applied at wrist and elbow, recorded by surface electrodes placed on intrinsic hand muscles. At least 10 F.WAVEs were recorded in each site and the least F.WAVE LATENCY was considered as minimal F.WAVE LATENCY.Maximum normal F.WAVE LATENCY for Median nerve was 25.7 ms for women and 28.5ms for men with simulation at the wrist. It was 23 ms and 25ms respectively with simulation at the elbow. Maximum normal F.WAVE LATENCY for ulnar nerve was 26.4 ms for women and 28.9 ms for men with stimulation at the wrist.It was 23.1 ms and 25.3 ms for men and women respectively with stimulation at the elbow. Maximum normal difference in F.WAVE LATENCY between right and left upper extremities with simulation at the wrist for total group was 2.2 ms for Median nerve and 2.4 ms for ulnar nerve. Maximum normal difference in F.WAVE LATENCY between Median and ulnar nerve in an extremity with stimulation at the wrist for total group was 2.7ms.There was statistically significant difference in F.WAVE LATENCY between women and men (P<0.05), which could be due to lower arm length in women than men.The study also revealed lower F.WAVE latencies, compared to other references, which may be due to lower height of Iranian than western countries.
