Binasal Occlusion (BNO), Visual Motion Sensitivity (VMS), and the Visually-Evoked Potential (VEP) in mild Traumatic Brain Injury and Traumatic Brain Injury (mTBI/TBI)

چکیده
The diagnosis and treatment of the possible visual sequelae in those with traumatic brain injury (TBI) represents an important area of health care in this special population. One of their most prevalent yet elusive visual symptoms is visual motion sensitivity (VMS). In this review, we present the basic VMS phenomenon and its related symptoms, clinical studies in the area, clinical research investigations using the visual-evoked potential (VEP) as a cortical probe, and possible mechanisms and related neurophysiology that may underlie VMS. Lastly, therapeutic interventions are briefly described, as well as future directions for clinical research and patient care in those with VMS and TBI.

Effect of binasal occlusion (BNO) on the visual-evoked potential (VEP) in mild traumatic brain injury (mTBI).
PRIMARY OBJECTIVE The purpose of the experiment was to assess the effect of binasal occlusion (BNO) on the visually-evoked potential (VEP) in visually-normal (VN) individuals and in those with mild traumatic brain injury (mTBI) for whom BNO frequently reduces their primary symptoms related to abnormally-increased visual motion sensitivity (VMS). DESIGN AND METHODS Subjects were comprised of a...

PRIMARY OBJECTIVE The purpose of this study was to assess the effect of check size (CS) and contrast (C) on VEP amplitude and latency in visually-normal (VN) and in mild traumatic brain injury (mTBI) adults to develop an optimized test protocol in each group. RESEARCH DESIGN AND METHODS Subjects were comprised of VN (n = 19) and individuals with mTBI (n = 16). Full-field, pattern VEP testing ...

PURPOSE To quantify visual attention objectively using the visual-evoked potential (VEP) in those having mild traumatic brain injury (mTBI) with and without a self-reported attentional deficit. RESEARCH DESIGN AND METHODS Subjects were comprised of 16 adults with mTBI: 11 with an attentional deficit and five without. Three test conditions were used to assess the visual attentional state to qu...
متن کاملEffect of chromatic filters on visual performance in individuals with mild traumatic brain injury (mTBI): A pilot study
PURPOSE Spectral filters have been used clinically in patients with mild traumatic brain injury (mTBI). However, they have not been formally assessed using objective techniques in this population. Thus, the aim of the present pilot study was to determine the effect of spectral filters on reading performance and visuo-cortical responsivity in adults with mTBI. METHODS 12 adults with mTBI/concu...
متن کاملComparison of visual perception error among patients with mild traumatic brain injury with healthy people
Background: Mild traumatic brain injury (MTBI) is the least brain injury due to direct or indirect blow to the head, which according to the Glasgow scale is given a score between 13 and 15. The findings indicate cognitive impairment. Perceptual dysfunction is one of the most important cognitive deficits in these patients. The present study was designed and performed to compare MTBI patients wit...
