The vestibular evoked myogenic potential (VEMP) is a promising test of the descending vestibulocollic system. Our aim was to determine whether the VEMP can be applied to an older patient population and can detect lesions in descending vestibulospinal pathways. We also compared VEMP clinical performance with that of the standard caloric test. VEMP test performance was retrospectively analyzed in...
OBJECTIVE The serial peaks of vestibular-evoked myogenic potentials (VEMPs) have been labeled p13, n23, n34 and p44 according to their latency. Waves p13-n23 have been shown to be of saccular origin, whereas the origin of waves n34-p44 is still unknown. In order to improve the clinical applicability of waves n34-p44, we examine the use of different patterns of acoustic stimuli to evoke constant...
Meniere's disease is the disorder of inner ear characterized by vertigo, tinnitus and sensorineural hearing loss. The vestibular evoked myogenic potential (VEMP) test could be useful in the analysis of saccular function, and diagnosis of Meniere's disease. In this study, we've analyzed the saccular function, using VEMP test in different groups of Meniere's disease. Patients were categorized as ...
BACKGROUND The probable cause of Benign Paroxysmal Positional Vertigo (BPPV) is a degeneration of the oto lithic organs (utricle and saccule). The aim of the study is to find possible alterations in Vestibular Evoked Myogenic Potentials (VEMP) recordings in BPPV patients, because the saccule is part of the VEMP pathway. MATERIAL/METHODS 27 BPPV patients (24 unilateral and 3 bilateral) aged 20...
BACKGROUND Vestibular evoked myogenic potential (VEMP) is one of the clinical tools to evaluate vestibular function. The VEMP can be recorded from sternocleidomastoid muscle by auditory stimulation with various sound stimuli. The aim of this study was to compare the VEMP responses evoked by short tone burst (STB) with those evoked by click stimuli in healthy young individuals. METHODS Twenty-...
Vestibular-evoked myogenic potential (VEMP) testing is a vestibular function test used for evaluating saccular and inferior vestibular nerve function. Parameters of VEMP testing include VEMP threshold, latencies of p1 and n1, and p1-n1 interamplitude. Less commonly used parameters were p1-n1 interlatency, interaural difference of p1 and n1 latency, and interaural amplitude difference (IAD) rati...
OBJECTIVE To investigate the vestibular evoked myogenic potentials (VEMPs) resulting in benign paroxysmal positional vertigo (BPPV) patients and to verify its clinical applications in BPPV. STUDY DESIGN A prospective study. SETTING Tertiary referral dizziness center. PATIENTS Forty-one patients with diagnosis of BPPV and 92 healthy volunteers who underwent VEMP testing. INTERVENTION Pat...
Sound and skull-tap induced vestibular evoked myogenic potentials (VEMP) were studied in a 43-year-old man following inferior vestibular neurectomy. Surgery was performed because of a small acoustic neuroma. Postoperative caloric testing suggested sparing of superior vestibular nerve function on the operated side. In response to sound stimulation there were no VEMP on the operated side, irrespe...
The vestibular evoked myogenic potential (VEMP) has become a useful tool to assess the saccule and inferior vestibular nerve function. Vestibulopathies involving the saccule or inferior vestibular nerve typically result in VEMP responses that are diminished or absent on the involved side. Abnormally large VEMPs are rare. Large VEMPs have been associated with superior canal dehiscence, Ménière's...
Vestibular-evoked myogenic potentials (VEMPs) are proposed as a reliable test to supplement the current vestibular test battery by providing diagnostic information about saccular and/or inferior vestibular nerve function. VEMPs are short-latency electromyograms (EMGs) evoked by high-level acoustic stimuli and recorded from surface electrodes over the tonically contracted sternocleidomastoid mus...
