| description | Introduction: CKD has turned a major cause of morbidity and
mortality. The prevalence of peripheral neuropathy is directly
proportional to duration and severity of CKD. Peripheral
neuropathy becomes evident after the patient reaches stage
4 CKD, but electrophysiological evidences occurs earlier. NCS
is an important means of evaluating the functional integrity of
peripheral nerves and has implications regarding clinical course
and prognosis.
Objectives: To study electrophysiological findings of peripheral
neuropathy in CKD patients
Methodology: The present study was a cross sectional;
descriptive study was conducted in October 2016 to October
2018. Data analysed by using SPSS 23.0 version. Clinical and
neurological examinations were done and blood investigations
were performed following which NCS was done. Results: Out
of 90 subjects, majority were from 45-54 years age group (26).
70% were male and 30% were females. Total 10 (11.11%)
patients showed pure sensory type of PN. Total 47 (52.22%)
patients showed sensory-motor type of PN. sensory-motor type
of PN was the predominant type (52.22%) found in study
followed by pure sensory type of PN (11.11%). Pure axonal
sensory motor pattern of PN found in 15 (25%) patients in preHD group, 11 (36.66%) patients in HD group. The difference
between the pre-HD and HD groups were statistically significant
for the median nerve amplitude, common peroneal nerve CV,
posterior tibial nerve CV, posterior tibial nerve distal latency
and sural nerve distal latency (p < 0.05).
Conclusion:Peripheral neuropathy is very common in CKD,
more common in dialysis patients as compared to predialysis
patients. It’s frequency and severity increase as the duration
of disease and stage of CKD increases. Sensory motor type of
neuropathy is more common than pure sensory type of
neuropathy.Pure axonal sensory motor and mixed (axonal +
demyelinating) sensory motor neuropathy are common
patterns of PN in CKD. |
