ABSTRACT

Objective: To correlate the changes between electrophysiological changes with the metabolic control and years of diagnostic in the diabetic patient. Material and methods: 28 patients were studied previous realization of laboratory studies to determine figures of glucosilated hemoglobin, fasting glucose, cholesterol LDL, HDL and triglycerides. They carried out a neuroconduction study that included the medium, cubital, radial, peroneal, tibial and sural nerves bilaterally. Motor and sensory latencies and amplitudes were determined, as well as motor conduction velocity and minimum latency of the F wave. The number of abnormal nerves was contrasts with the parameters of the metabolic control and years of diagnostic; with measures of central tendency and index of Pearson correlation. Results: All the studied patients had polineuropathy from 2 years of diagnostic, independently of their metabolic control and years of diagnostic, the affectation was predominantly motor and in inferior extremities. Conclusions: There was not correlation statistically significant between the electrophysiological findings of neurological affection with the figures of metabolic control and the years of diagnostic; p higher than 0.05.
