Overview
Nerve conduction studies and needle electromyography may be helpful in the diagnosis of Guillain Barre syndrome and differentiating various sub types. Findings diagnostic of demyelinating forms of Guillain Barre syndrome include: Reduced conduction velocity of motor nerves, increased distal motor latency, increased latency of F wave, conduction block and Temporal scattering. Findings diagnostic of axonal forms of Guillain Barre syndrome include: Reduced amplitude of distal motor and/or sensory nerve impulses and conduction block of motor nerves.
Other Diagnostic Studies
- Nerve conduction studies and needle electromyography may be helpful in the diagnosis of Guillain Barre syndrome and differentiating various sub types.
