Abstract:
The central sensory and motor pathway function in healthy persons and patients with several neurological disorders was selectively characterized by evaluation of latencies of short (R1) and long (R2) latency EMG responses as well as simultaneously recorded somatosensory potentials (N19, N26) evoked by electrical stimulation of N.medianus and N.peroneus. On the basis of these latencies the peripheral and central sensory/motor conduction times were calculated. By using this investigation procedure a selective quantification of central pathway functions is possible.
