Deskripsi

Vestibular-evoked myogenic potentials (VEMPs) are important methods for evaluating vestibular otolith conduction pathway. Air-conducted sound (ACS) cervical/ocular vestibular-evoked myogenic potentials (cVEMPs/oVEMPs) have been widely used in clinic, bone-conduction vibration stimulation (BCV)- cVEMPs/oVEMPs also began to be used in clinic, but galvanic vestibular stimulation (GVS)-cVEMPs/oVEMPs have not been reported in China. This article reviews the detection and clinical application of GVS-VEMPs.
