Orbicularis oculi reflex in brain death.
The early and late components of the orbicularis oculi reflex were absent bilaterally in three patients who fulfilled the clinical and electroencephalographic criteria of brain death. A response to peripheral facial nerve stimulation was obtained in all. These preliminary observations suggest that the study of the orbicularis oculi reflex is a simple, objective, bedside neurophysiological test ...
متن کاملOrbicularis oculi reflex in coma: clinical, electrophysiological, and pathological correlations.
The orbicularis oculi reflex was studied in 48 comatose patients and the results were correlated with clinical and pathological findings. The late component of the reflex was absent or of minimal amplitude in all cases regardless of the site of lesions, reflecting a diffuse suppression of the reticular system rather than a specific or local block in the brain-stem. Alteration of the early compo...
متن کاملAbnormal Control of Orbicularis Oculi Reflex Excitability in Multiple Sclerosis
Brain lesions in patients with multiple sclerosis may lead to abnormal excitability of brainstem reflex circuits because of impairment of descending control pathways. We hypothesized that such abnormality should show in the analysis of blink reflex responses in the form of asymmetries in response size. The study was done in 20 patients with relapsing-remitting multiple sclerosis and 12 matched ...
متن کاملHabituation of the orbicularis oculi reflex in dementia and dyskinetic states.
The habituation index is a quantitative expression of the ability of the orbicularis oculi (blink reflex) to adapt to a series of electrical stimuli applied to the supraorbital region. This parameter has been studied in a group of normal control subjects, and the results compared with those in cases of idiopathic and drug-induced Parkinsonism, states of dementia, and dyskinesias such as Hunting...
متن کاملOrbicularis oculi reflex in the Wallenberg syndrome: alteration of the late reflex by lesions of the spinal tract and nucleus of the trigeminal nerve.
The orbicularis oculi reflex was studied in nine cases with lateral medullary lesions. Diagnosis of the Wallenberg syndrome was made clinically in seven cases and at necropsy in another. The clinical features of one other case were closely allied to but not typical of this syndrome. An afferent delay of the late reflex on the side of the lesion in the presence of a normal early reflex was seen ...
