Orthodromic and antidromic nerve conduction velocities were determined in sensory median nerve fibres from digit to palm and from palm to wrist in patients with the carpal tunnel syndrome. In a large number of subjects the carpal tunnel syndrome could be detected only when the palm-to-wrist segment was investigated. Comparison of the results of the corresponding orthodromic and antidromic nerve conduction velocity measurements along the different segments revealed no significant disadvantages for the antidromic method. This technique should be given preference to the orthodromic method since it is easier.
在患有腕管综合征的患者中，测定了从手指到手掌以及从手掌到腕部的感觉正中神经纤维的顺向和逆向神经传导速度。在大量受试者中，仅在研究从手掌到腕部的节段时才能检测到腕管综合征。对沿不同节段相应的顺向和逆向神经传导速度测量结果进行比较，结果显示逆向法并无明显劣势。由于逆向法更简便，因此相较于顺向法，应优先选用该技术。
