Brainstem Auditory Evoked Potential in Primary Hypertension
Arterial hypertension is a frequent worldwide health disorder prevalent in a large percentage of the population and has adverse effects on the brain throughout one’s lifespan. This study was undertaken to evaluate the BERA as potential markers of early nervous system damage in essential hypertension and also to correlate the changes if any, between blood pressure and BERA in patients with essen...
متن کاملEffects of Acute Hypothyroidism on Brainstem Auditory Evoked Potentials (BAEPs)
Thyroid hormone deficiency is associated with peripheral and central nervous system (CNS) dysfunctions (1-9). CNS manifestations include somnolence, lethargy, mental retardation, memory changes, depression, and rarely convulsions and coma (10). The CNS involvement in overt hypothyroidism has previously been shown on the basis of visual evoked potentials in adult patients (11-13) and of BAEPs an...
متن کاملBrainstem auditory evoked responses in brainstem infarction.
Brainstem auditory evoked responses (BAERs) were recorded in 40 patients with clinically definite brainstem infarction, and results were compared to localizations from physical signs and CT scans. The BAER was abnormal in 92% of patients with evidence on physical examination of dysfunction of lateral structures in the pons or midbrain. Normal BAERs were seen with medially-situated or medullary ...
متن کاملBrainstem Auditory Evoked Potentials
Brainstem auditory evoked potentials (BAEPs) are electrical field potentials generated by stimulation of the auditory pathways. With repetitive auditory stimulation, reproducible electrical potentials can be elicited and recorded from scalp electrodes. These waves are generated by specific brain regions and occur at predictable intervals. Clinically, this neurophysiological property is useful t...
متن کاملBrainstem auditory evoked potential testing in Dalmatian dogs in Brazil
The brain stem auditory-evoked potential (BAEP) is an electrophysiologic test that detects and records the electrical activity in the auditory system from cochlea to midbrain, generated after an acoustic stimulus applied to the external ear. The aim of this study is to obtain normative data for BAEP in Dalmatian dogs in order to apply this to the evaluation of deafness and other neurologic diso...
