Motor Evoked Potential Warning Criteria in Supratentorial Surgery: A Scoping Review. [PDF]
Simple Summary Motor evoked potential (MEP) alarm criteria may have an important impact on the preservation of motor function in supratentorial neurosurgical procedures. However, no consensus exists regarding the optimal cut-off values and interpretation

Reducing motor evoked potential amplitude variability through normalization [PDF]
BackgroundTranscranial Magnetic Stimulation (TMS) is used for in vivo assessment of human motor cortical excitability, with application of TMS pulses over the motor cortex resulting in muscle responses that can be recorded with electromyography (EMG) as ...

Diagnostic Value of Multimodal Intraoperative Neuromonitoring by Combining Somatosensory-With Motor-Evoked Potential in Posterior Decompression Surgery for Thoracic Spinal Stenosis [PDF]
BackgroundIntraoperative neuromonitoring (IONM) has become an increasingly essential technique in spinal surgery. However, data on the diagnostic value of IONM in predicting impending postoperative neurological deficits (PONDs) for patients who underwent

Characterization of Contusive Spinal Cord Injury by Monitoring Motor-Evoked Potential [PDF]
This study involves longitudinal neuro-electrophysiological analysis using motor-evoked potentials (MEP) and the Basso, Beattie, and Bresnahan behavioral examinations (BBB) to evaluate moderate mid-thoracic contusive spinal cord injury (SCI) in a rat ...

Deciphering the Morphology of Motor Evoked Potentials [PDF]
Motor Evoked Potentials (MEPs) are used to monitor disability progression in multiple sclerosis (MS). Their morphology plays an important role in this process. Currently, however, there is no clear definition of what constitutes a normal or abnormal morphology.
