Somatosensory Evoked Potentials

2021
Abstract Somatosensory evoked potentials (SEPs, sometimes called SSEPs) provide a noninvasive, sensitive, and quantitative way of assessing the functional integrity of the peripheral and central proprioceptive, somatosensory conduction pathways.

Somatosensory Evoked Potentials

2009
SEPs recorded with surface electrodes represent volume-conducted activity arising from myelinated peripheral and central axons, synapses in central gray matter, and changes in the size and shape of the volume conductor. They provide an objective measure of function in large-diameter myelinated sensory afferents peripherally and in proprioceptive ...

Somatosensory Evoked Potentials

1983
Somato sensory evoked potentials are potentials which are elicited by means of stimuli on the skin, sensory organs or the sensory nerves. They are derived from the peripheral nerves or the central nervous system.

Somatosensory Evoked Potentials

2011
Intraoperative application of evoked potentials has evolved over the last thirty years, and somatosensory evoked potential (SSEP) monitoring is the method most commonly employed [1]. The ultimate goal of intraoperative SSEP monitoring is to ensure maintenance of neurologic integrity throughout a procedure with resultant improved outcome and decreased ...

No shinkei geka. Neurological surgery, 2023
The measurement of somatosensory evoked potentials(SEPs)is a basic clinical technique used for functional mapping and monitoring of brain and spinal cord responses during surgery. Since the potential evoked by a single stimulus is smaller compared to the surrounding electrical activity(background brain activity and/or electromagnetic artifacts), the ...

Somatosensory Evoked Potential

Abstract This chapter explains the notion of a somatosensory evoked potential (SEP). It primarily focuses on recording techniques and neural sources and discusses diagnostic values and limitations. In contrast to conventional sensory nerve conductions, studies of SEP assess the entire length of the afferent pathway.

Long-Latency Somatosensory Evoked Potentials

Journal of Clinical Neurophysiology, 1986
Theoretically, long-latency somatosensory evoked potentials (SEPs) provide information on the function of somatosensory associative cortical structures. Their potential role in clinical studies and research has been hampered by the lack of standardized methodology in the use of these SEPs.

Somatosensory-evoked potentials and vibration

Archiv f�r Psychiatrie und Nervenkrankheiten, 1980
Vibratory stimuli (250 Hz) with amplitudes between 50 and 200 microns were delivered to the middle finger knuckle of 15 human subjects. The cortical-evoked potentials and psychophysical magnitude estimations were simultaneously recorded. Only the large, late components of the evoked cortical potentials showed significant correlation to the stimulus ...

Somatosensory evoked potential

Acta Neurochirurgica, 1995
Somatosensory evoked potentials (SSEPs) have been used to help minimize neurologic morbidity during spinal surgery. While this is a sensory test it has been used as an inference of motor function. The failure to always achieve the latter goal has resulted in some pessimism regarding the value of this test.

Somatosensory Evoked Potential

2013
AbstractStudies of somatosensory evoked potential assess the entire length of the afferent pathwaysin contrast to conventional sensory nerve conduction techniques primarily used to evaluate the distal segment of the peripheral nerve. Most studies focused on the latencies of spinal and scalp potential as a measure of central and peripheral neural ...
