An attempt has been made to use the protocol for evaluation of nerve damage prepared at a "Workshop on Neuritis" held at Schiefflein Leprosy Research and Training Centre, Karigiri in three cases of ulnar nerve decompression, three cases of median nerve decompression and three cases of ulnar neuritis on corticosteroid therapy. The nerve function deficit did show an improvement. The problems and suggestions are presented with a view to encourage the use of the said protocol to enable comparison of data amongst different centres and different therapy.
