Electrophysiological Study of Berrettini Anastomosis

NCT06458751 · Status: COMPLETED · Phase: NA · Type: INTERVENTIONAL · Enrollment: 30

Summary

The common opinion that sensory supply of digit 5 (D5) and medial half of digit 4 (D4) of the hand is by ulnar nerve, while the lateral half of D4 and the remaining digits is by median nerve is an oversimplification of a complex topic. Indeed, the literature demonstrated that both the median and ulnar nerves display a number of deviations to the traditionally taught branching patterns.

The aim of our study was to investigate the physiological role of median and ulnar nerves in the sensory supply of D4.

Conditions

  • Electrophysiologic Study
  • Hand Anastomosis

Interventions

OTHER

electrophysiological study

Antidromic sensory nerve conduction studies of median and ulnar nerves will be performed on both hands of 30 healthy subjects with no history of previous neuromuscular disease and no abnormalities on neurological examination., by using surface electrical stimulation at wrist and surface digital recording electrodes on both sides of D4.

DEVICE

electromyograph

surface electrical stimulation at wrist and surface digital recording electrodes on both sides of D4.
