Change of Nerve Conduction Properties in IVIg Dependent Neuropathies

December 11, 2014 updated by: Helmar Lehmann, University of Cologne
IVIg exert a variety of different immunomodulatory effects and several mechanism of action have been proposed for IVIg. In this study the role of IVIg on short term nerve conduction in patients with immune-mediated neuropathies will be explored.
