摘要
Demonstration of the possibility to obtain the sensory nerve action potential (SNAP) of sural nerve in patients over 60 years old, without peripheral neuropathy. Prospective study on 101 patients older than 60 years of age. Stimulation was applied 12 cm proximal to the recording point. Two hundred and two SNAPs of the sural nerve were collected with an average peak latency of 3.2 ms, onset latency of 2.6 ms, peak-to-peak amplitude of 15.2 μV and velocity of 45.7 m/s. It was possible to obtain the sural nerve SNAP in all tested patients older than 60, without peripheral neuropathy. The values obtained in this study prove to be useful as a reference in the evaluation of patients older than 60 years of age. © 2022 ASET–The Neurodiagnostic Society.
