Title: Recruitment curve of H-reflex in diagnostics of non-radicular syndroms Objectives: The main objective of this work is to verify the conductivity of nerve structures examination recruitment curves H-reflex and M-wave in the EMG examination in probands with non-radicular syndrome L5/S1. Methods: We tested 12 probands clinical trial diagnosed with non-radicular syndrome L5/S1. The test sample was compared with an equally large group of control probands. H-reflex of m.soleus was examined by bipolar stimulation in the fossa poplitea of tibial nerve. The results of an electromyographic examination was evaluated to asymptomatic and symptomatic side. Amplitude of H-reflex and M-wave, slope of recruitment curve, peaks of recruitment curves for the H-reflex and M-wave and the ratio Hmax / Mmax were evaluated and statistically compared. Results: Results of non-radicular syndrome L5/S1showed no significant change in the H-reflex. Due to this result we can suggests that there is no damage in nerve fibres in patients with non-radicular syndrome. Keywords: non-radicular syndrome, H-reflex, M-wave, recruitment curve
