Vestibular-Evoked Myogenic Potential After Cochlear Implantion

  • First Online:

Part of the book series: Modern Otology and Neurotology ((MODOTOL))

Abstract

Vestibular-evoked myogenic potential (VEMP) recording is a new tool for exploring the pathways from the sacculus, inferior vestibular nerve, and vestibular nucleus to sternocleidomastoid muscles (SCMs) in pediatric otology and neurotology. c-VEMP (saccular origin) and o-VEMP (utriculus origin) are clinically applied for a different diagnosis. After cochlear implantion, c-VEMPs are possible to record because of an electrical current spread from cochlear nerve which stimulates the inferior vestibular nerve.
