Abstract
Supramaximal paired stimuli were used for investigating the relative refractory period of median nerve sensory fibres in the carpal tunnel syndrome (CTS). Results from 11 hands with CTS (8 patients) were compared with results from 12 hands of 8 healthy control persons. During the relative refractory period the latency of the action potential was significantly more prolonged in CTS than in control nerves (pKeywords
