F Wave - F Wave Measurements

F Wave Measurements

Several measurements can be done on the F responses, including minimal and maximal latencies, and F wave persistence.

The minimal F wave latency is typically 25-32 ms in the upper extremities, and 45-56 ms in the lower extremities.

F wave persistence is the number of F waves obtained per the number of stimulations, which is normally 80-100% (or above 50%).

    “Down the blue night the unending columns press
    In noiseless tumult, break and wave and flow,”
