Additional possible roles for F waves in clinical practice are in the process of development. Analyses of F waves may be the best method for motor unit estimates. 17 Information from F waves about central nervous system function is increasing. This includes evidence from F waves for physiological co

Ulnar nerve F waves were studied in 23 healthy volunteers and 27 diabetic patients. Latencies and chronodispersion were analyzed in each group for different sample sizes. Significant differences were not detected with the different sample sizes for mean latencies, with samples above 16 stimuli or 10
