Vestibular evoked myogenic potential [PDF]
Introduction. Vestibular evoked myogenic potentials are neurophysiological method for examining of saccular function, the bottom of the vestibular nerve that in nervates the sacculus and central vestibular pathways. Those are inhibitory potentials of the sternocleido mastoid musclein response to ipsilateral acoustic stimulation of the ...

The Effect of Noise Exposure on Hearing Function and Vestibular Evoked Myogenic Potentials
Purpose: Exposure to noise can cause damage to both auditory and vestibular systems. The objective of this study is to evaluate how noise exposure affects the hearing and vestibular systems in individuals with noise-induced hearing loss (NIHL). Methods:

Cervical Vestibular Evoked Myogenic Potentials in Vestibular Neuritis [PDF]
Background and Aim: Vestibular evoked myogenic potentials [VEMP] are electromyographic responses to acoustic stimuli to assess the otolith function and integrity of inferior vestibular nerve. It is an easy test to perform and non-invasive. This study was

Masseter Vestibular Evoked Myogenic Potentials (M-VEMPs) in Vestibular Neuritis [PDF]
Introduction: Masseter vestibular evoked myogenic potentials (M-VEMPs) are a recent tool for assessing a vestibulo-trigeminal pathway departing from the saccule, similarly to cervical VEMPs (C-VEMPs), that evaluate saccular function via the ...

Cervical and ocular vestibular evoked myogenic potentials in patients with Diabetic Peripheral Neuropathy [PDF]
Background Diabetes causes impaired microarterial blood flow, demyelination and neuronal damage, which may lead to cochlear damage and vestibular malfunction. Vestibular evoked myogenic potentials (VEMP) is a simple, reproducible test.

Skull Vibration-Induced Nystagmus and High Frequency Ocular Vestibular-Evoked Myogenic Potentials in Superior Canal Dehiscence [PDF]
Background: Although diagnostic criteria have been established for superior canal dehiscence syndrome, cases in which the diagnosis is not easy are frequent. On those occasions, some tests such as vibration-induced nystagmus or vestibular-evoked myogenic
