An electric diagnostic tape measure used to measure the electrical conduction of a peripheral nerve using a standard electrical nerve stimulator. The tape measure includes a flexible, elongated body with an active recording electrode mounted or attached to its distal end. Formed on the lower surface of the active recording electrode is a conductive, adhesive layer that temporarily holds the electrode on the patient's skin during a test. Located on the top surface of the elongated body is a distance-measuring index. During a test, the elongated body is aligned so that the end of the distance-measuring index is aligned and registered with the active recording electrode. By moving the nerve stimulator to different locations adjacent to the skin adjacent to the elongated body, the distance of the nerve being tested may be measured. In one embodiment, a wire extends through the elongated body.
