Stationarity of the somatosensory evoked potential

Medical and Biological Engineering and Computing, 1984
The validity of the somatosensory evoked potential for serial neurological evaluation requires an understanding of normal variations in the responses Studies were conducted in 15 normal adult volunteers during two nights of sleep and in five normal adult volunteers during waking hours.

Somatosensory Evoked Potentials

2016
Somatosensory evoked potentials (SEPs) are used as an extension of the electrodiagnostic evaluation and nerve conduction tests that are performed in large myelinated sensory fibers of the peripheral and central nervous systems. SEP studies are noninvasive; SEPs are obtained by the repetitive submaximal stimulation of a sensory or mixed sensory/motor ...

Midazolam and somatosensory evoked potentials

British Journal of Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery, 1993
The effect of intravenous midazolam on the somatosensory evoked potentials (SEP's) elicited from median nerve stimulation was investigated in a study on 20 volunteers. SEP's were recorded from contralateral scalp before and at 5, 30, and 60 min after drug administration.

Somatosensory Evoked Potentials [PDF]

, 2007
Somatosensory evoked potentials (SSEPs) are electrical potentials generated by various portions of the ascending sensory pathways in response to stimulation of peripheral sensory nerves. SSEPs can be easily elicited and recorded and can be used to examine the functional integrity of somatosensory pathways.

Evoked Somatosensory Potentials in Man

Archives of Neurology, 1966
EVOKED cortical potentials can be recorded through scalp electrodes from human subjects by the application of averaging computer techniques. The method has been employed by several investigators, 1-5 and the findings are in substantial agreement. It is apparent, however, that the amplitude and configuration of the evoked potentials can be affected by ...

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 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

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

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.
