Intraoperative Neurophysiological Monitoring for Endoscopic Endonasal Approaches to the Skull Base: A Technical Guide [PDF]
Intraoperative neurophysiological monitoring during endoscopic, endonasal approaches to the skull base is both feasible and safe. Numerous reports have recently emerged from the literature evaluating the efficacy of different neuromonitoring tests during

Comparison of transcranial electric motor and somatosensory evoked potential monitoring during cervical spine surgery. [PDF]
BACKGROUND: There has been little enthusiasm for somatosensory evoked potential monitoring in cervical spine surgery as a result, in part, of the increased risk of motor tract injury at this level, to which somatosensory monitoring may be insensitive ...

Myasthenia Gravis—An Analysis of Multimodal Evoked Potentials
Introduction: The aim of this study is a comprehensive analysis of the parameters of exogenous evoked potentials (visual, brainstem auditory, and somatosensory) in patients with myasthenia gravis (MG), a prototype of both neuromuscular junction disease ...

Multimodal evoked potential abnormalities in patients with Wilson's disease [PDF]
The aim of this study was to investigate the involvement of the following functional systems: somatosensory evoked potentials (SSEP), visual evoked potentials (VEP), and event related potentials (ERP), in twenty patients with Wilson's disease (WD).

Vestibular evoked potentials (VsEPs) of cortical origin produced by impulsive acceleration applied at the nasion [PDF]
: We report the results of a study to record vestibular evoked potentials (VsEPs) of cortical origin produced by impulsive acceleration (IA). In a sample of 12 healthy participants, evoked potentials recorded by 70 channel electroencephalography were ...

Exploring the Mechanisms of Exercise-Induced Hypoalgesia Using Laser Evoked Potentials
Exercise-induced hypoalgesia is well described, but the underlying mechanisms are unclear. The aim of this study was to examine the effect of exercise on somatosensory evoked potentials, laser evoked potentials, pressure pain thresholds and heat pain ...

Pulsed ultrasound differentially stimulates somatosensory circuits in humans as indicated by EEG and FMRI. [PDF]
Peripheral somatosensory circuits are known to respond to diverse stimulus modalities. The energy modalities capable of eliciting somatosensory responses traditionally belong to mechanical, thermal, electromagnetic, and photonic domains.

The Somatosensory Evoked Potential [PDF]
Three decades have elapsed since Dawson (1947) recorded the first somatosensory evoked potential (SEP). Simple superimposition of individual responses was possible because the patient had progressive myoclonic epilepsy. In this disease the SEP amplitude is much enhanced (Shibasaki et al, 1978; Kelly et al, 1981).

Preterm Perinatal Hypoxia-Ischemia Does not Affect Somatosensory Evoked Potentials in Adult Rats
Somatosensory evoked potentials (SSEPs) are a valuable tool to assess functional integrity of the somatosensory pathways and for the prediction of sensorimotor outcome in perinatal injuries, such as perinatal hypoxia-ischemia (HI).

Abnormal evoked potentials in autoimmune glial fibrillary acidic protein astrocytopathy
Autoimmune GFAP astrocytopathy is a new clinical entity and only a limited number of cases have been reported. Here we report the results of multimodal central conduction studies performed in a case of this disorder.A 72-year-old woman developed gradual ...
