The peripheral nerve maturation (proprioceptive and motor nerve conduction velocities (PNCV and MNCV] was studied in 3 groups of newborn babies. Two groups of premature babies (PT), studied when they reached the expected date of birth (group I, gestational age (GA) at birth 27-31 weeks, n = 13, group II, GA at birth 32-35 weeks, n = 9), were compared to 10 normal full-term newborns (FT). The MNCV of PT babies was similar to that of FT babies: group I 22.8 +/- 3.3 m/sec (X +/- S.D.), group II 24.9 +/- 4.3 m/sec, FT 25.7 +/- 3.9 m/sec. PNCV was significantly lower in group I (18.1 +/- 5.9 m/sec) than in group II (28.3 +/- 6.4 m/sec) and in FT babies (32.0 +/- 7.4 m/sec) (P less than 0.001). Such a delay in maturation could be partly responsible for the neurological impairment often observed in PT babies.
