Abstract:
Recovery of somatosensory evoked potentials (SEPs) was studied by paired stimulation of the median nerve in patients with various kinds of myoclonus. This technique revealed the hyperexcitability of the central nervous system (CNS) which could not be detected by the conventional SEP technique using a single stimulus. This technique would be useful for studying the excitability of the CNS.
