The aim of this study is to investigate the relation between the faction of lower limb peripheral nerves (velocity, amplitude) and related factors. This study uses data from the 61 stroke patients who had agreed with the examination and answered the survey. The target population was divided four age groups (≦60, 61-70, 71-80, 81≦).
The outcomes are below. Firstly, velocity will be lower (p=0.001) and amplitude will be narrower (p<0.001) with age. Secondly, we found significant associations the relation of having paralysis or not and the current custom of rehabilitations (with paralysis 64%, with no paralysis 36%, p<0.001). Thirdly, on the other hand, between having paralysis or not and the function of velocity and amplitude has no significant differences.
