Introduction: Nerve conduction studies reveal technique to work on peripheral nerve being capable in revealing nerve-related issue. It aids in distinguishing from a nerve injury to situation where muscles are affected due to a nerve lesion. While, in that respect much dissimilarity persist in use of Nerve Conduction Velocity (NCV) in different nerves with regard to place, sex, mass & other ethnographical facts i.e. Span of life. This has been viewed in performing nerve conduction studies while ethnograpical part differs for different geological region.
Aims and Objective: The purpose of present work is to do the Nerve Conduction Variables (NCV) studies in rt. median nerve in usual well young of Malwa region and to study the outcome of B.M.I on it.
Materials and Methods: A total 110 healthy participants from the periods of 20 and 50 years, with none nerve lesion, being examined at IMCHRC, Indore. All trial were completed on JAVA RMSAleron-201 series. Scrutiny on SPSS 10.0 series.
Results: The mean of NCV firstly rises among periods of 20-30 yrs, 31-40 yrs & 40-50years, preceded by a fall in the mean NCV of elbow–wrist segment which significantly fall while the mean of B.M.I rises with increasing length of life. It is to be noted that NCV was inversely related to an increase in B.M.I in the volunteer the mean NCV of Set 1 > Set2, Set3, Set 4 with P < 0>
Conclusion: Usual parameter for conduction in peripheral nerves to be used in the test of peripheral nerve lesion. B.M.I has a definitive effect on NCV. So, this factor has been put into concern during interpretation of results during nerve conduction studies. Therefore, it should also be used for research purposes & in prognosis approach.
