Objective: To investigate whether drug treatment improves the electroneurological measures of affected peripheral nerve function in leprosy patients.
Design: Clinical status of patients determined on the first visit by an investigator administered, pre-designed questionnaire, followed by measurement of motor conduction velocity (MCV) and distal latency (DL) of ulnar, median, common peroneal and posterior tibial nerves bilaterally in patients referred consecutively from the dermatology unit and leprosy clinic, Teaching Hospital, Galle. MCV and DL measurements were repeated after 6 to 12 months of treatment.
