TABLE 4.

Electrodiagnostic findings in Miller–Fisher syndrome patients: percentage of patients with abnormal results in at least two nerves

Finding Very early, % (n) Early, % (n) Overall, % (n)
H reflex absence 100% 100% 100%
F wave anomalies 33% 20% 25%
Reduced CMAP A 33% 20% 25%
Reduced MCV 0% 40% 25%
Increased DML 0% 0% 0%
Increased CMAP Dur 0% 20% 12%
Conduction blocks 0% 0% 0%
Reduced SNAP A 33% 80% 63%
Reduced SCV 0% 33% (3) 17% (6)
Sural‐sparing pattern 33% 75% (4) 57% (7)

When patients were excluded due to the lack of CMAPs, SNAPs, or normal sural nerve SNAPs, frequencies are calculated based on the number of patients reported in parentheses.

Abbreviations: CMAP A, compound motor action potential amplitude; CMAP Dur, compound motor action potential duration; DML, distal motor latency; MCV, motor conduction velocity; SCV, sensory conduction velocity; SNAP A, sensory nerve action potential amplitude.
