The use of somatosensory evoked potential during revision or reoperation for total hip arthroplasty.

Clinical Orthopaedics and Related Research, 1989
Somatosensory evoked potential (SSEP) was used to continuously monitor the sciatic nerve intraoperatively during revision or reoperation for total hip arthroplasty. Of 25 cases monitored, eight patients (32%) exhibited 12 instances of SSEP deterioration,

Somatosensory evoked potential in neurosyphilis

Journal of Neurology, 2002
Since the development of effective antibiotic therapy, the occurrence of neurosyphilis has become less frequent. The number of syphilitic patients is gradually increasing as a complication in acquired immunodeficiency syndrome, but the diagnosis of neurosyphilis sometimes is difficult.

Somatosensory Evoked Potentials

2009
SEPs recorded with surface electrodes represent volume-conducted activity arising from myelinated peripheral and central axons, synapses in central gray matter, and changes in the size and shape of the volume conductor. They provide an objective measure of function in large-diameter myelinated sensory afferents peripherally and in proprioceptive ...

Somatosensory evoked potentials in adrenomyeloneuropathy

Neurology, 1997
Adrenomyeloneuropathy (AMN) is an X-linked metabolic disorder causing accumulation of very-long-chain fatty acids with multifocal nervous system demyelination of the peripheral nerves, spinal cord, and cerebrum. The extent to which the disorder affects upper versus lower limbs or peripheral versus CNS has not been electrophysiologically defined in a ...

Somatosensory Evoked Potentials

2020
This chapter discusses somatosensory evoked potentials (SSEPs) elicited by stimulation of large mixed nerves in the upper and lower extremities, their clinical utility, method of acquisition, and standard recording protocol. This chapter describes the major components of median and posterior tibial SSEPS, and their generator sources, emphasizing near ...

Somatosensory evoked potentials in abetalipoproteinemia

Electroencephalography and Clinical Neurophysiology, 1985
Visual, brain-stem auditory, and somatosensory evoked potentials (SEPs) were obtained on a patient with known abetalipoproteinemia. Only the SEP was abnormal, and it correlated with the reported neuropathology of this disease. Serial SEP studies remained stable, as had the clinical condition of this patient on vitamin E therapy.

Simultaneous somatosensory evoked potential and electromyographic recordings during lumbosacral decompression and instrumentation.

Neurosurgery, 1998
OBJECTIVE Both motor and sensory neurological deficits have been reported after decompression and instrumentation of the lumbosacral spine. In this report, we describe a simple and effective method by which sensory and motor functions can be monitored ...

Somatosensory Evoked Potentials

1983
Somato sensory evoked potentials are potentials which are elicited by means of stimuli on the skin, sensory organs or the sensory nerves. They are derived from the peripheral nerves or the central nervous system.

Long latency somatosensory evoked potentials

Journal of Clinical Neurophysiology, 1986
Theoretically, long-latency somatosensory evoked potentials (SEPs) provide information on the function of somatosensory associative cortical structures. Their potential role in clinical studies and research has been hampered by the lack of standardized methodology in the use of these SEPs.

Somatosensory-evoked potential to evaluate the trigeminal nerve after sagittal split osteotomy.

Oral surgery, oral medicine, oral pathology, oral radiology, and endodontics, 2001
OBJECTIVE The purpose of this study was to assess the onset period of trigeminal nerve hypoesthesia during bilateral sagittal split osteotomy, with the use of the trigeminal somatosensory-evoked potential (TSEP).
