Reliability 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 کاملAttenuation of Motor Evoked Potentials Following Prone Positioning
Background and Importance Of outmost importance for the success of neurosurgical operations is proper patient positioning. This is particularly the case for operations conducted in the prone position, which is associated with several potential complications. Case presentation Here we report the case of a 52 years old male patient who underwent endoscopic discectomy for an L5-S1 herniated dis...

متن کاملMagnetic stimulation: motor evoked potentials
Although the electrical excitability of the cerebral cortex was discovered more than 100 years ago by Fritz and Hitzig and Ferrier, it has proved dif®cult until recently to perform effective stimulation without removing the scalp and skull. The reason is that both these structures have a high resistance to the passage of electrical current. Thus, if stimulating electrodes are placed over an are...
متن کاملClinical applications of motor evoked potentials.
Magnetic stimulation of brain and spinal roots provides a non-invasive evaluation of nervous propagation as well as of motor cortex excitability in healthy subjects and in patients affected by neurological diseases (i.e. multiple sclerosis, stroke, Parkinson's disease, myelopathies etc.). Motor areas can be reliably mapped and short- and long-term 'plastic' changes of neural connections can be ...
