The P18 component of the median nerve SEP recorded from a posterior to anterior neck montage

Highlights ► The P18 component of the median nerve SEP can be recorded from a posterior to anterior neck montage. ► Vibration of the palm of the hand reduces the amplitude of all components except P18 and N18. ► Double-pulse stimulation attenuates the amplitude of the P18 component, as has been desc...

Description
Summary:Highlights ► The P18 component of the median nerve SEP can be recorded from a posterior to anterior neck montage. ► Vibration of the palm of the hand reduces the amplitude of all components except P18 and N18. ► Double-pulse stimulation attenuates the amplitude of the P18 component, as has been described for the positive component of the spinal cord dorsum potential.
