1

Normal values are listed in Table 2. Sensory studies are orthodromic except patient 7, who had an antidromic median sensory study.

2

Amplitude values for sensory studies are microvolts and motor studies are millivolts.

3,4

Conduction velocities and F-wave latencies were normal for all nerve studies.
