Cervical Vestibular-Evoked Myogenic Potentials: Norms and Protocols
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...
متن کاملCervical and ocular vestibular evoked myogenic potentials in multiple sclerosis participants
Background: Multiple sclerosis (MS) is a chronic neurological disease that affects brain and spinal cord. The infratentorial region contains the cerebellum and brainstem. Vestibular evoked myogenic potentials (VEMPs) are short-latency myogenic responses. Cervical vestibular evoked myogenic potential (cVEMP) is a manifestation of vestibulocolic reflex and ocular vestibular evoked myogenic pote...
متن کاملVestibular evoked myogenic potentials in patients with rheumatoid arthritis
Background: Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is an autoimmune systemic disease. Most common autoimmune diseases are multisystem disorders that may also present with otological manifestations, and autoimmune inner ear disease accompanied by vestibular dysfunction. This study aimed to compare the vestibular function between RA patients and normal subjects using cervical vestibular evoked myogenic...
متن کاملVestibular-evoked myogenic potentials.
PURPOSE OF REVIEW This article reviews the literature on vestibular-evoked myogenic potential testing, a short latency electromyogram evoked by high acoustic stimuli and recorded via surface electrodes over the sternocleidomastoid muscle. Applications and refinements of this technique are described for different pathologies and in adults and children. RECENT FINDINGS Various techniques for el...
متن کاملrecording of vestibular evoked myogenic potentials
it has been shown recently that loud clicks evoke myogenic potentials in the tonically contracting sternocleidomastoid muscles. studies have suggested that these potentials are of vestibular origin, especially of the saccule and inferior vestibular nerve. a pilot study was undertaken in our hospital to record vestibular evoked myogenic potentials (vemp) for the first time in iran. eighteen heal...
