Altered peripheral nerve function resulting from haemodialysis
Journal of Neurology, Neurosurgery, and Psychiatry
|January 1, 1977
Abstract:
The amplitudes of muscle and nerve action potentials evoked median nerve stimulation were recorded just before and immediately after haemodialysis. These revealed a growht of action potential amplitude during dialysis. It is suggested that some component of the defective peripheral nerve function that inevitably accompanies uraemia is temporarily improved during dialysis.
