Aim:To evaluate vestibular evoked myogenic potentials in patients with multiple sclerosis as method of diagnostic support. Study design: Case-control. Material and Method: We studied a group of normal individuals (n=15) and a Studied group (n=15) that comprised patients with diagnosis of multiple sclerosis. Both groups were submitted to vestibular evoked myogenic potential exam. In each ear it ...

Recently, a new indicator of vestibular otolithic function has been reported: it is a series of negative-positive myogenic potentials recorded by surface electrodes on the skin beneath the eyes in response to bone-conducted vibration (BCV) delivered to the forehead at the hairline in the midline (Fz). The potential is called the ocular vestibular-evoked myogenic potential (oVEMP) and the first ...

Introduction: The majority of the daily life activities involve the concurrent performance of simultaneously challenging motor and cognitive activities, such as talking while walking, which requires the vestibular system for balance. Functional balance allows the brain to interpret and integrate the sensory information from our physical and social environment. This study aimed to investig...

  Background :Preterm birth is a significant global health problem with serious short- and long-term consequences. This study examined the long term effects of preterm birth on vestibular evoked myogenic potentials (VEMPs) among preschool-aged children.   Methods : Thirty-one children with preterm and 20 children with term birth histories aged 5.5 to 6.5 years were studied. Each child underwent...

Superior semicircular canal dehiscence (SSCD) is a rare entity recently described whose typical clinical symptomatology represented by dizziness triggered variation of pressure. We reported case SSCD which was diagnosed thanks to computed tomography (CT) scan the petrous bone conducted systematically in front mixed deafness with normal eardrum. The bilateral and revealed on left side perception...
