Motor-Evoked Potentials

Seminars in Anesthesia, Perioperative Medicine and Pain, 1994
During the last decade, somatosensory evoked potentials (SSEP) have become established as a practical method for monitoring the spinal cord during various surgical procedures where there is a risk of paraplegia, e.g., scoliosis surgery, thoracic aortic surgery, and neurosurgical procedures upon the spinal cord. However, it has also become apparent that

Motor evoked potentials

Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation Clinics of North America, 2004
Noninvasive electrical stimulation of the human brain first was attempted in the 1950s. In the early 1980s, the first clinical application method of transcranial electrical stimulation was developed. Investigators in the mid-1980s showed that it was possible to stimulate the nerve and the brain using external magnetic stimulation (transcranial magnetic

MOTOR EVOKED POTENTIALS

International Anesthesiology Clinics, 1990
A complication resulting from surgery for spinal deformity and certain types of aortic aneurysms is a loss of spinal cord function. In order to detect the intraoperative occurrence of this event, techniques, that monitor spinal cord function are administered.

Motor Evoked Potential☆

2017
The term “motor evoked potential” (MEP) commonly refers to the action potential elicited by non-invasive (magnetic) stimulation of the motor cortex through the scalp. MEPs can be recorded using surface electromyography from all skeletal muscles and are mediated by fast-conducting cortico-motoneuronal connections projecting monosynaptically to the alpha-

Motor Evoked Potentials

2021
Abstract Motor evoked potentials can be generated by either electrical or magnetic stimulation of the corticospinal pathways. Direct activation of pyramidal cells and indirect activation of cortical interneurons generate impulses that propagate down the spinal cord as D-waves and I-waves, ultimately stimulating anterior horn cells and ...

Motor Evoked Potentials

2016
Motor evoked potentials (MEP) may be used in the diagnosis of central and peripheral neurological disorders and have become the standard of care in many operative procedures as a means to monitor the motor pathways.In the awake patient, transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS) can be utilized with surface or subcutaneous muscle recordings to identify ...

Motor Evoked Potentials

2013
Iatrogenic injuries are an undesired consequence of surgery, yet iatrogenic injuries to the motor system are much more devastating to a patient’s quality of life than most injuries to the sensory system. Generally an injury to the spinal cord will be most likely be picked up by somatosensory evoked potentials (SSEPs), yet a focal injury to the anterior

A comparison of somatosensory evoked and motor evoked potentials in stroke

Annals of Neurology, 1989
AbstractNineteen patients with radiologically confirmed stroke, and varying degrees of hemiparesis, were studied using somatosensory evoked potentials and the recently developed technique of transcutaneous motor cortex stimulation. The functional deficit caused by stroke was assessed at the time of evoked potential testing and again on follow‐up 2 ...
