Clinical applications of motor evoked potentials
Electroencephalography and Clinical Neurophysiology, 1998Magnetic stimulation of brain and spinal roots provides a non-invasive evaluation of nervous propagation as well as of motor cortex excitability in healthy subjects and in patients affected by neurological diseases (i.e. multiple sclerosis, stroke, Parkinson's disease, myelopathies etc.).

Motor-evoked potentials: unusual findings
Clinical Neurophysiology, 1999The aims of this study were to present rare findings of motor evoked potentials (MEPs) in 3 patients with spastic paraparesis and to show that careful interpretation is indispensable in experiments done with very high intensity stimulation.The conduction along several segments of the descending tracts was studied by our previously published method in 3

The diagnostic value of motor evoked potentials
Clinical Neurophysiology, 1999To assess the diagnostic usefulness of motor evoked potentials (MEPs) and to identify the optimal method for calculating the central conduction time. The test results were evaluated in a prospective study of 1023 neurological patients.We evaluated the correlation between clinical and electrophysiological findings, the accuracy, the sensitivity, the ...

MOTOR EVOKED POTENTIAL MONITORING WITH SUPRATENTORIAL SURGERY
Neurosurgery, 2004To assess feasibility and clinical value of motor evoked potential (MEP) monitoring with surgery close to supratentorial motor areas and pathways.Functional mapping by somatosensory evoked potential phase reversal and continuous MEP recording after high-frequency repetitive electrical cortex stimulation was performed during 182 operations in 177 ...

Masui. The Japanese journal of anesthesiology, 2006
Motor dysfunction following spinal surgery and thoracoabdominal aortic surgery remain as one of their devastating complications. Since the development of postoperative motor dysfunction can deteriorate quality of life of patients, the prevention of such complications is an important clinical challenge.

Intraoperative Motor Evoked Potentials
American Journal of Electroneurodiagnostic Technology, 2001ABSTRACT.Motor impairment is among the most feared and devastating outcomes following major surgery. Traditionally, the “wake-up test” has been used for intraoperative evaluation of motor function, but is associated with a number of limitations such as its general crudeness, common anesthetic risks such as extubation and recall, inadequacy as a ...

Motor Evoked Potentials in CNS Trauma
Central Nervous System Trauma, 1986The evolving techniques of motor evoked potential (MEP) monitoring are reviewed here with reference to their application in clinical and experimental CNS trauma, and with particular relevance to spinal cord injury. Transcutaneous electrical stimulation of the motor cortex for analysis of descending pathways has been developed over the past 6 years in a

MEP recordings are a safe and effective means of assessing conduction along the central and peripheral motor pathways in a variety of clinical settings. MEP is proven to be effective in monitoring central motor pathways that are at risk during surgical procedures and is finding usefulness in the diagnosis and prognosis of several central nervous system

Presse medicale (Paris, France : 1983), 1993
Due to the motor evoked potentials recorded in limb muscles after transcranial and spinal magnetic stimulation, conduction in the central motor pathways can now be evaluated safely and painlessly in man. The central motor conduction time obtained includes the time required for transmission, along the fast pyramidal fibres, from the cortex to the spinal

Anaesthesia and the motor evoked potential
1994Sensory evoked potentials are widely used to monitor the integrity of the spinal cord during scoliosis surgery. Routine monitoring of the somatosensory evoked potential as recorded from the epidural space is relatively insensitive to routinely used anaesthetic agents.
