Outcome measures: Sound-evoked myogenic potentials in response to STBs were recorded with surface electrodes over each SCM. Responses evoked by STBs in patients were compared with responses evoked by clicks. Results: In all normal subjects, STBs (0.5, 1, and 2 kHz) evoked biphasic responses on the SCM ipsilateral to the stimulated ear; the same was true for clicks. Short tone bursts of 0.5 kHz ...

UNLABELLED Vestibular evoked myogenic potentials are vestibulocervical reflexes resulting from sacculus stimulation with strong intensity sounds. Normality parameters are necessary for young normal individuals, using low frequency stimuli, which configure the most sensitive region of this sensory organ. AIM To establish vestibular evoked myogenic potential standards for low frequency stimulat...

OBJECTIVES This study aims to determine the normal values for ocular vestibular evoked myogenic potentials in response to air conducted stimuli in healthy adults. PATIENTS AND METHODS Thirty-six healthy adult participants with no ear complaints were enrolled. Ocular vestibular evoked myogenic potential tests were performed to all participants. Latency and amplitude values of the waves were re...

OBJECTIVE This case-control study aimed to determine whether the imbalance in Charcot-Marie-tooth (CMT) disease is caused only by reduced proprioceptive input or whether the involvement of the vestibular nerve is an additional factor. METHODS Fifteen patients with CMT disease (aged 48 ± 17 years; 8 women) underwent cervical vestibular-evoked myogenic potentials, which reflect otolith-spinal r...
