Evoked potentials (PE) are neurophysiological measures used to assess central nervous system function. This study reviews PE methodology and applications in epilepsy, aiding in physiopathology and cognitive function studies.

Area of Science:

  • Neuroscience
  • Clinical Neurophysiology

Context:

  • Evoked potentials (PE) are crucial for functional exploration of the central nervous system.
  • Various modalities exist, including visual, auditory, somatosensory, and cognitive endogenous potentials, each requiring specific methodologies.
  • These techniques involve generating responses to repeated sensory stimulation.

Purpose:

  • To summarize the methodology for obtaining evoked potentials (PE).
  • To review the application of PE in the field of epilepsy.
  • To explore the correlation of PE alterations with clinical findings in epileptic syndromes.

Summary:

  • Evoked potentials (PE) offer characteristic findings in studies of epileptic syndromes.
  • Alterations in PE can be correlated with clinical findings in epilepsy.
