Evoked Potentials or Responses.
Cheryl Iverson
in AMA Manual of Style: A Guide for Authors and Editors (11 ed.)
Several types of evoked potentials or responses (stimulated electrical signals)5 (pp13-39), 6 , 17 , 18 , 19 , 20 may be recorded: brainstem auditory evoked potentials (BAEPs or BAERs), somatosensory evoked potentials (SSEPs, including various types such as the following, which are not mutually exclusive: short-latency, upper extremity, lower extremity, median nerve, posterior tibial nerve), and visual evoked potentials or responses (VEPs or VERs, including pattern shift [PSVEP] and flash [FVEP]). As in EEG, evoked potential testing uses recording electrodes and produces tracings....

Cheryl Iverson
in AMA Manual of Style: A Guide for Authors and Editors (11 ed.)
Polysomnography is the monitoring of various physiologic parameters simultaneously during sleep,6 , 21 including the following: ■ EEG: standard electrodes are used (see 14.11.2, Electroencephalographic Terms) ■ Electro-oculogram (EOG): tracings are obtained from the left eye and right eye ■ Electromyogram (EMG): submental (chin) EMG, leg muscle EMG, eg, left anterior tibialis, right anterior tibialis...View:
