title: Neurophysiological evaluation of microsurgically implanted grafts bridging peripheral nerve defects.
abstract: Measurement of motor and sensory conduction velocities, amplitude of M-wave and sensory nerve action potentials, and coaxial needle EMG were used to evaluate function of grafts bridging defects in median, ulnar, and radial nerves in 73 patients. The results show values only moderately lower than the normal limits.
