Abstract: Somatosensory evoked potentials (SSEPs) are electrical potentials that measure various parts of the ascending somatosensory pathways. They are elicited through stimulating mixed nerves, with subsequent orthodromic stimulation of sensory nerves. Despite advances in imaging, SSEPs complement both the clinical examination and peripheral neurophysiological studies when assessing the functional integrity of the sensory pathways, being especially helpful when imaging is inconclusive. We describe the technique of per… Show more
