Evoked potentials in motor system diseases [PDF]

open access: possibleNeurology, 1988
We studied pattern-shift visual (PSVEP), brainstem auditory (BAEP), and somatosensory (SEP) evoked potentials in 38 unselected patients with motor system diseases (MSD) (28 sporadic, 10 familial). PSVEPs were normal in all patients, and BAEPs were normal in all except one with clinical hearing loss who had absent waves I and III and prolonged wave V ...

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.

Intraoperative Motor Evoked Potentials

American Journal of Electroneurodiagnostic Technology, 2001
ABSTRACT.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 ...

Alarm criteria for motor evoked potentials

Neurology India, 2017
To evaluate three commonly used alarm criteria for interpreting the significance and diagnostic value of transcranial motor evoked potential (TcMEP) changes during spinal surgery.A systematic literature search was performed using PubMed/MEDLINE, Web of Science, and EMBASE from 1945 to January 2014. We included all those studies that were (1) randomized

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 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-

Transcranial Motor-Evoked Potentials [PDF]

open access: possible, 2011
Motor-evoked potentials (MEPs) are the most recent addition to routine intraoperative neurophysiologic monitoring (IOM). Enthusiastic reports of improved outcomes obtained with the use of somatosenory evoked potential (SEP) monitoring, primarily for scoliosis procedures in children and young adults, were quickly followed by case reports of isolated ...

Motor-evoked potentials: unusual findings

Clinical Neurophysiology, 1999
The 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

Motor performance and sensory-evoked potentials

Electroencephalography and Clinical Neurophysiology, 1970
Abstract Averaged evoked potentials (EP) to tones were determined for fifteen subjects in three tasks which were designed to evaluate the effects of motor response, of withholding a response and of different response latencies. With the influence of eye movement minimized, it was found that the various deflections of the sensory EPs were affected ...
