Pain-related somatosensory evoked potentials and functional brain magnetic resonance in the evaluation of neurologic recovery after cardiac arrest: a case study of three patients [PDF]
This case series investigates whether painful electrical stimulation increases the early prognostic value of both somatosensory-evoked potentials and functional magnetic resonance imaging in comatose patients after cardiac arrest. Three single cases with

Dermatomal somatosensory evoked potentials and cortical somatosensory evoked potentials assessment in congenital scoliosis [PDF]
Background The aim of this study was to assess the value of dermatomal somatosensory evoked potentials (DSEPs) and cortical somatosensory evoked potentials (SSEPs) in monitoring spinal cord function for patients with congenital scoliosis (CS).

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 ...

Suspected Somatosensory Evoked Potentials Pacing Atria During Cerebral Bypass Surgery: A Case Report [PDF]
Somatosensory evoked potentials are commonly utilized during surgery to assess the function of the central nervous system. We present a case of a 48-year-old female patient undergoing cerebral bypass surgery who was noted to have reproducible ...

Motor and Somatosensory Evoked Potential Monitoring Without Wakeup Test during Scoliosis Surgery [PDF]
Background: Available evidence suggests that Transcranial electric motor evoked potentials and somatosensory evoked potential are safe methods to check the integrity of the spinal cord during spine deformity correction surgery. We compare the efficacy of
