People with synaesthesia have been reported to show atypical electrophysiological responses certain simple sensory stimuli, even if these stimuli are not inducers of synaesthesia. However, it is unclear whether this constitutes a neural marker that relatively specific or reflects some other trait co-occurs synaesthesia, but it. One candidate sensitivity (e.g., strong aversion lights and sounds,...

  Electrocochleography (ECoG) records the electrophysiologic activity of the most peripheral part of the auditory system, the inner ear cochlea and the 8th nerve. Auditory evoked potentials being recorded are Cochlear Microphonic (CM) and Summating Potential (AP). In order to provide the proper background for laboratory research and introducing an ECoG curve of a model animal, it was decided to...

The middle latency response of the auditory evoked potential may be useful as an indicator of the hypnotic state during anaesthesia. However, it is difficult to record in some circumstances. This communication provides some suggestions and guidance for those not familiar with the technique.

The electroencephalogram, and somatosensory and auditory evoked potentials were recorded from a patient, who, at necropsy, showed a restricted unilateral thalmic infarct involving predominantly the anterior and lateral thalamus. The electroencephalogram showed distinct monomorphic delta activity and a suppression of the alpha rhythm over the side of the lesion. Short latency somatosensory evoke...

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...
