Visual and somatosensory evoked cortical potentials in multiple sclerosis.
The diagnostic value of the pattern reversal evoked cortical potential (VEP) and the somatosensory evoked cortical potential (SEP) has been compared in 50 patients with established or suspected multiple sclerosis. A prolonged latency of VEP was found in 96% of definite cases of multiple sclerosis, 58% of probable cases, and 20% of possible cases. A prolonged latency of SEP by stimulation of med...
متن کاملTongue somatosensory evoked potentials in multiple sclerosis
Objective: Th e aim of this study was to determine the effi cacy of tongue somatosensory evoked potentials (tSSEP) in the evaluation of brainstem involvement in patients with multiple sclerosis (MS). Methods: tSSEP was performed in ten healthy volunteers and 29 patients with fi rst clinical episode of a demyelinating event suggestive of MS. Th e data obtained were compared between the two group...
متن کاملThe Effect of Oral Verapamil on the Visual Evoked Potentials in Definite Multiple Sclerosis Patients
Introduction: Ionic channel rearrangements through the demyelinated axons or supporting media play significant role in remission of the neurological deficit in MS patients. In this study the effects of Verapamil as a calcium channel blocker on central conduction have been investigated through the evaluation of changes in P100 latency of the visual evoked potential. Method: This randomized doubl...
متن کاملEffect of raising body temperature on visual and somatosensory evoked potentials in patients with multiple sclerosis.
The effects of raising body temperature on the visual (VEP) and somatosensory (SEP) evoked potentials were observed in normal subjects and in patients with multiple sclerosis. The amplitude of the VEP was significantly reduced to the same degree after heating in normal subjects and in patients with multiple sclerosis but there was no effect on the latency of the potential. Changes in amplitude ...
متن کاملA comparison of visual, brainstem auditory, and somatosensory evoked potentials in multiple sclerosis.
Multimodality evoked potentials testing including PVEPs, SEPs and BAEPs was done in 112 patients who were known or suspected to have multiple sclerosis. The incidence of abnormal evoked potential findings in each of these systems was considered in patients in the different diagnostic categories of M.S. Results were also evaluated with respect to the presence of abnormal clinical visual, somatos...
