88. The sympathetic skin response as a predictor of recovery of ulnar nerve lesion at wrist

The aim of the study was to evaluate, in the ulnar nerve injuries, distally to the elbow, the role of monitoring the function of sudomotor fibers assessed by Sympathetic Skin Response (SSR) during recovery after surgical treatment and rehabilitation.We recruited 31 patients admitted for rehabilitation after traumatic wrist injury with ulnar nerve and artery lesions. Patients with other nerves or artery involved were excluded. All patients underwent surgical primary nerve repair within 72h and the same rehabilitative program.
