This study was aimed to find the prevalence and pattern of polyneuropathy in CRF patients.
The study included 40 CRF patents divided into 2 groups; the hemodialysis group included 20patients and the conservative group included 20patients. The study also included 20healthy volunteers as a control group.
The study revealed that the prevalence of polyneuropathy. In the hemodialysis and conservative groups was 65% and 60% respectively, with no significant difference in the prevalence of polyneuropathy between them. The prevalence of polyneuropathy in all CRF patients was 62.5%. The polyneuropathy was evident clinically in 37.5% of CRF patients (60% of all polyneuropathy cases), but 25% of CRF patients (40% of all polyneuropathy cases) had sub-clinical neuropathy that was diagnosed only on an electrophysiological.
