Official title
An Observational Prospective Study on Patients With Peripheral Neuropathies Explored With a Combined Clinical, Neurophysiological and Nerve Ultrasound Approach- REG-NP
Overview
The study involves recording personal, clinical, and instrumental information. The acquisition of the above-mentioned personal and clinical information will be carried out in conjunction with the usual follow-up visits scheduled as part of normal clinical practice. At the end of the study, a statistical analysis of the data will be carried out.
Detailed description
Patients will be asked to participate in the prospective observational study after being fully informed of its objectives and how they will be pursued. Patient compliance is made official by signing the informed consent form.
Patients will then undergo nerve conduction tests and electromyography, as appropriate, and ultrasound evaluation as per clinical practice.
Prior to the above diagnostic investigations, patients will perform a neurological examination to assess the distribution and severity of neuropat
Interventions
- Other peripheral neuropathies
the neurophysiological study aimed at studying the function of nerves and nerve ultrasound to evaluate its morphological appearance will be performed. Depending on the outcome of the tests carried out, further blood tests will be ordered to identify the causes of neuropathy and identify the most effective treatment where available.
Primary outcome measures
- record of all diagnosed peripheral neuropathies [Time frame: through study completion, an average of 1 year]
Secondary outcome measures (2)
- assess the additional role of ultrasound in the diagnosis of diseases of the peripheral nervous system [Time frame: through study completion, an average of 1 year]
- Identifying ultrasound parameters of disease severity and/or treatment response [Time frame: through study completion, an average of 1 year]
