Design outcomes

Primary

Measure	Time frame
Clinical, EMG and HR US parameters (see protocol for details) will be compared intraindividually over time using nonparametric correlation analysis. Furthermore, the HR US parameters will be compared intraindividually, both positionally (7 positions) and temporally (4 longitudinal measurements) within one arm and between two arms using repeated measures ANOVAs. To find out whether HR US parameters can be useful for the prediction of nerve regeneration, (logistic) regression analysis will be used.	—
