Somatosensory evoked potential in cerebrovascular accidents - Usefulness as an objective index for sensory disturbance.

Evaluation of lip sensory disturbance using somatosensory evoked magnetic fields.

OBJECTIVE To evaluate lip sensory dysfunction in patients with inferior alveolar nerve injury by lip-stimulated somatosensory evoked fields (SEFs). METHODS SEFs were recorded following electrical lip stimulation in 6 patients with unilateral lip sensory disturbance and 10 healthy volunteers. Lip stimulation was applied non-invasively to each side of the lip with the same intensity using pin e...

[Somatosensory evoked potential in experimental intracerebral hemorrhage].

Somatosensory evoked potential findings in ankylosing spondylitis.

OBJECTIVE Somatosensory evoked potential (SSEP) abnormalities were reported in patients with ankylosing spondylitis (AS). This study aimed to investigate SSEP abnormalities and its relation with clinical findings in AS patients. MATERIALS AND METHODS The study included 26 patients with AS and 17 age-matched health volunteers (Control for SSEP). Median nerve SSEP findings were normal in all AS...

Intraoperative Somatosensory and Motor Evoked Potential Recording and Electroencephalographic Monitoring Usefulness During Aneurysm Surgery

In the last 20 years, there have been advances in techniques and instrumentation for intracranial aneurysm exposure and obliteration [94]. However, it seems that 32% of the patients, who underwent surgery, suffer a fatal outcome or some form of sequelae [20]. Primary brain damage due to subarachnoid haemorrhage (SAH) and to a vasospasm, is the major cause of mortality and morbidity; but surgery...
