Contact heat evoked potentials in normal subjects.
Laser-evoked potentials are widely used to investigate nociceptive pathways. The newly developed contact heat stimulator for evoking brain response has the advantages of obtaining reliable scalp potentials and absence of cutaneous lesions. This study aimed to identify the most appropriate stimulation site with consistent cortical responses, and to correlate several parameters of the contact hea...
متن کاملSomatosensory Vibratory Evoked Potentials: Stimulation Parameters
In a clinical application, a method for an examination of a vibratory sense is not very objective and it depends on an active cooperation of a patient, which cannot be achieved in every situation. The aim of this research is to define parameters of an evoked potentials method with a vibratory stimulation technique which would establish reliable and repeatable results applicable in a clinical us...
متن کاملThermal grill conditioning: Effect on contact heat evoked potentials
The 'thermal grill illusion' (TGI) is a unique cutaneous sensation of unpleasantness, induced through the application of interlacing warm and cool stimuli. While previous studies have investigated optimal parameters and subject characteristics to evoke the illusion, our aim was to examine the modulating effect as a conditioning stimulus. A total of 28 healthy control individuals underwent three...
متن کاملReliability of Motor Evoked Potentials Induced by Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation: The Effects of Initial Motor Evoked Potentials Removal
Introduction: Transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS) is a useful tool for assessment of corticospinal excitability (CSE) changes in both healthy individuals and patients with brain disorders. The usefulness of TMS-elicited motor evoked potentials (MEPs) for the assessment of CSE in a clinical context depends on their intra-and inter-session reliability. This study aimed to evaluate if removal ...
متن کاملContact heat evoked potentials using simultaneous EEG and fMRI and their correlation with evoked pain
BACKGROUND The Contact Heat Evoked Potential Stimulator (CHEPS) utilises rapidly delivered heat pulses with adjustable peak temperatures to stimulate the differential warm/heat thresholds of receptors expressed by Adelta and C fibres. The resulting evoked potentials can be recorded and measured, providing a useful clinical tool for the study of thermal and nociceptive pathways. Concurrent recor...
