Abstract :

 Diabetes mellitus is a common metabolic disorder of multiple aetiology. It may causes neuropathy. Nerve conduction study widely used for the assessment of neuropathies. Hence the aim of present study was to study the motor and sensory nerve conduction parameters in type 2 diabetic patients and control group and compared with themselves. 50 type 2 diabetic patients as cases and 50 normal healthy subjects as controls were enrolled in our study. Motor nerve conduction study which includes distal motor latency, amplitude of compound muscle action potential (CMAP) and conduction velocity in median, ulnar, peroneal and tibial nerves and sensory nerve conduction study which include amplitude of sensory nerve action potential (SNAP) and conduction velocity in median, ulnar and sural nerves were measured. In our study involvement of both motor and sensory nerve conduction parameters were observed.
