Exploration of the Intraoperative Motor Evoked Potential

SPINE, 2016
Prospective study.The objectives of the study was to (1) seek a relation between motor evoked potential (MEP) and corresponding cervical cord function in cervical compression myelopathy (CCM) and (2) explore a high-sensitive MEP range that can predict the intraoperative monitoring change ahead in cervical spine surgery.There have been lots of ...

Motor Evoked Potentials

2020
This chapter discusses motor evoked potentials (MEPs) recorded by transcranial electrical stimulation (TCES) and transcranial magnetic stimulation (TCMS). It describes anatomy of the central motor pathways and physiology of the D and I waves. Intraoperative monitoring of MEPs using TCES is now widely used for spinal cord and posterior fossa surgeries ...

Clinical applications of motor evoked potentials

Electroencephalography and Clinical Neurophysiology, 1998
Magnetic 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.).

The diagnostic value of motor evoked potentials

Clinical Neurophysiology, 1999
To 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 ...

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 ...

Motor evoked potentials facilitation

Clinical Neurophysiology, 2016
Intraoperative transcranial motor evoked potentials (MEPs) are routinely used to monitor corticospinal tract function during surgical procedures. MEP may be difficult to obtain in some patients, and when they are obtained with high intensity stimulation, significant movement may limit their use.

Anaesthesia and the motor evoked potential

1994
Sensory 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.

Motor Evoked Potentials in CNS Trauma

Central Nervous System Trauma, 1986
The 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

Evoked potentials from the motor tracts in humans

Neurosurgery, 1983
Spinal cord monitoring during operation is of increasing importance in the prevention of injury. However, there is no direct monitor of the motor tracts available. We have reported a system using direct stimulation of the area overlying the motor tract between the intermediolateral sulcus and the dentate ligament in cats.

MOTOR EVOKED POTENTIAL MONITORING WITH SUPRATENTORIAL SURGERY

Neurosurgery, 2004
To 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 ...
