Vestibular 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...
متن کاملOcular Vestibular Evoked Myogenic Potentials
Introduction Diagnostic testing of the vestibular system is an essential component of treating patients with balance dysfunction. Until recently, testing methods primarily evaluated the integrity of the horizontal semicircular canal, which is only a portion of the vestibular system. Recent advances in technology have afforded clinicians the ability to assess otolith function through vestibular ...
متن کاملVestibular evoked myogenic potentials: an overview.
UNLABELLED The vestibular evoked myogenic potential (VEMP) test is a relatively new diagnostic tool that is in the process of being investigated in patients with specific vestibular disorders. Briefly, the VEMP is a biphasic response elicited by loud clicks or tone bursts recorded from the tonically contracted sternocleidomastoid muscle, being the only resource available to assess the function ...
