Phrenic nerve conduction studies were performed within 48 h of admission and subsequently in 29 patients (14 of whom required mechanical ventilation) with acute organophosphate (OP) poisoning. The mean (ยฑSD) amplitude of the diaphragmatic compound muscle action potential (CMAP) in patients requiring
## Abstract This article reviews the determinants of conduction velocity in myelinated nerve fibers. For fibers exhibiting geometric similarity, conduction velocity is nearly proportional to diameter. However, in classes of geometrically similar fibers, myelin thickness and internode distance are l
