Beyin Sapı Motor Uyarılmış Potansiyeller

Bu çalışmada bimastoidal beyin sapı stimulasyonu için yüksek akımlı ve kısa süreli akım veren bir stimulator kullanıldı. Stimulasyon için anod sağ tarafta olmak üzere yüzeyel halka elektrodlar her iki mastoid proçesin posterior köşesine yerleştirildi. Kayıtlama için yüzeyel halka elektrodlar soleus ve tibialis anterior kaslarına yerleştirildi. Beyin sapının elektriksel uyarımı ile piramidal yolun direkt olarak serviko-meduller bileşke düzeyinden uyartıldığı düşünülmektedir.

Brainstem Motor Evoked Potential

In this study we used an electrical stimulator which gives high voltage, short time duration for bimastoidal brainstem stimulation. Each of the surface electrod pairs was placed at the posterior edge of each mastoid process. The anodal electrod was right side. Surface EMG electrod pairs were placed over the long axis of anterior tibial muscle and belly of the soleus muscle for recording. The electical brainstem stimulation is considered to activate the corticospinal tract directly near the cervico-medullary junction.

Brainstem, motor evoked potential,
