Abstract

Background: The technique of measuring ocular vestibular evoked myogenic potentials (oVEMP) in response to Mini-shaker vibration is relatively new, there is a limited normative data to define the presence or absence of a response in the literature.

Objective: To determine the test-retest reliability of cervical and ocular VEMPs (cVEMP and oVEMP, respectively) to air-conducted sound (ACS) and bone-conducted vibration (BCV) stimulation and to determine normative ranges for the responses.

Methods: Twenty normal-hearing individuals (40 ears) and 20 hearing impaired volunteers with normal balance function (40 ears) were examined in this study. ACS cVEMP and BCV oVEMP (using a Mini-shaker) were recorded from both groups to assess the test-retest reliability and to collect normative VEMP data for P1/N1 latencies and amplitudes from 20 normal hearing individuals. To test reliability, VEMP recordings were repeated within the same session.

Results: The test-retest reliability for all the cVEMP parameters showed excellent reliability whereas oVEMP parameters showed between fair and excellent reliability depending on the parameter tested. Normative data for VEMP P1/N1 latencies and amplitudes were established.

Conclusions: Normative data and test-retest reliability for BCV oVEMP using the Mini-shaker at 100 Hz were established in our study for the first time in the literature. Responses appear reliable.

成人前庭诱发肌源性电位（VEMP）测试-再测可靠性。

背景：测量眼前庭诱发肌源性电位（oVEMP）对迷你振动器振动的反应的技术相对较新，文献中用于定义是否存在反应的标准数据有限：目的：确定颈部和眼部 VEMP（分别为 cVEMP 和 oVEMP）对空气传导声（ACS）和骨传导振动（BCV）刺激的重测可靠性，并确定反应的标准范围：本研究对 20 名听力正常者（40 耳）和 20 名平衡功能正常的听力受损志愿者（40 耳）进行了检查。记录两组听力正常者的 ACS cVEMP 和 BCV oVEMP（使用迷你振动器），以评估测试-再测试的可靠性，并收集 20 名听力正常者 P1/N1 延迟和振幅的标准 VEMP 数据。为了测试可靠性，在同一疗程中重复记录 VEMP：所有 cVEMP 参数的重复测试可靠性都非常高，而 oVEMP 参数的可靠性则介于一般和优秀之间，具体取决于所测试的参数。建立了 VEMP P1/N1 延迟和振幅的标准数据：我们的研究首次在文献中建立了使用 100 赫兹迷你振动器测量 BCV oVEMP 的标准数据和测试-重复可靠性。反应似乎是可靠的。

期刊介绍： Journal of Vestibular Research is a peer-reviewed journal that publishes experimental and observational studies, review papers, and theoretical papers based on current knowledge of the vestibular system. Subjects of the studies can include experimental animals, normal humans, and humans with vestibular or other related disorders. Study topics can include the following: Anatomy of the vestibular system, including vestibulo-ocular, vestibulo-spinal, and vestibulo-autonomic pathways Balance disorders Neurochemistry and neuropharmacology of balance, both at the systems and single neuron level Neurophysiology of balance, including the vestibular, ocular motor, autonomic, and postural control systems Psychophysics of spatial orientation Space and motion sickness Vestibular rehabilitation Vestibular-related human performance in various environments
