“…World Health Organization (WHO) and American Diabetes Association (ADA) clarified that HbA1c % value more than 6.5% is diagnostic of DM and 5.7 to 6.4% as pre-diabetes. 4 Nerve Conduction Study Nerve conduction study (NCS) is an electrophysiological instrument used to evaluate the general health of peripheral nerves; therefore, NCS is useful in diagnosing disorders affecting these nerves. 5 The NCS, in the meantime, is the gold standard tool to diagnose diabetic polyneuropathy.…”

Diabetes mellitus (DM) is regarded as the most common cause of chronic peripheral neuropathy. It arises when blood sugar levels are high, causing damage to the nerves. In the meantime, the nerve conduction study (NCS) is the gold standard tool to diagnose diabetic polyneuropathy, the sensory nerve of the leg in the calf region is called the sural nerve. It is the continuation of the tibial nerve at this body part.
