Short comments of vestibular- evoked myogenic potential test

  

  • Received:2020-08-12 Published:2020-11-17

Abstract: Stimulation via air-conducted sound or bone-conducted vibration enables recording of vestibular-evoked myogenic potential(VEMP)from cervical muscles(called cervical VEMP, cVEMP)and extraocular muscles(termed ocular VEMP, oVEMP). These two emerging tests expand the test battery available to clinicians for exploring dynamic otolithic function, and create a potential use for the sacculo-collic reflex and utriculo-ocular reflex, respectively. Coupled with audiometry and caloric test, the inner ear test battery is designed to assess the inner ear function including the cochlea, saccule, utricle and semicircular canals. Clinically, the inner ear test battery has been widely adopted in humans and experimental animals. It is believable that comprehensive assessment of the inner ear function via an inner ear test battery may stimulate to elucidate the mechanism of peripheral and central vestibular disorders.

Key words: Air-conducted sound, Bone-conducted vibration, Cervical vestibular-evoked myogenic potential, Ocular oVEMP, Sacculo-collic reflex, Utriculo-ocular reflex, Inner ear test battery
