Ocular torsion responses to sinusoidal electrical vestibular stimulation
BACKGROUND Eye movements evoked by electrical vestibular stimulation (EVS) offer potential for diagnosing vestibular dysfunction. However, ocular recording techniques are often too invasive or impractical for routine clinical use. Furthermore, the kinematic nature of the EVS signal is not fully understood in terms of movement sensations. NEW METHOD We apply sinusoidal EVS stimuli varying from...
متن کاملAsymmetry of balance responses to monaural galvanic vestibular stimulation in subjects with vestibular schwannoma☆
OBJECTIVE We investigated the potential of galvanic vestibular stimulation (GVS) to quantify lateralised asymmetry of the vestibulospinal pathways by measuring balance responses to monaural GVS in 10 subjects with vestibular schwannoma and 22 healthy control subjects. METHODS Subjects standing without vision were stimulated with 3 s, 1 mA direct current stimuli delivered monaurally. The mean ...
متن کاملShort-duration galvanic vestibular stimulation evokes prolonged balance responses.
The application of galvanic vestibular stimulation (GVS) evokes distinct responses in lower limb muscles involved in the control of balance. The purpose of this study was to investigate the balance and lower limb muscle responses to short-duration GVS and to determine whether these responses are modulated by small changes in center of gravity (CoG) and baseline muscle activity occurring during ...
متن کاملModelling Three Dimensional Vestibular Responses During Complex Motion Stimulation
Complex motion stimuli provide a unique and powerful method to stretch the limited range of sensory stimulation we normally experience and to decouple those sensory inputs which normally correlate with one another during normal movements. By examining the responses induced by complex stimuli, the characteristics of the underlying neural processing (from sensor to response) can be examined more ...
متن کاملResponses of primary somatosensory cortical neurons to controlled mechanical stimulation.
The results of psychophysical studies suggest that displacement velocity may contribute significantly to the sensation of subcortical somatosensory neurons. The cortical correlates of these phenomena, however, are not known. In the present study the responses of rapidly adapting (RA) neurons in the forelimb region of cat primary somatosensory cortex (SI) to controlled displacement of skin and h...
