All had suffered recent cerebral infarction. SEPs were performed within the first week, 6 weeks, 3 months and 6 months after stroke onset. Improvement of initially abnormal SEPs was maximal in the first 6 weeks and this correlated closely with the period of maximum clinical improvement. The results of this study suggest that the major effect of stroke on SEPs occurs acutely and is little affected by secondary degenerative processes. | Gov't Doc #: | 1713837 | URI: | https://ahro.austin.org.au/austinjspui/handle/1/10279 | Journal: | Electroencephalography and clinical neurophysiology | URL: | https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/1713837 | Type: | Journal Article | Subjects: | Aged Aged, 80 and over Cerebral Cortex.physiopathology.radiography Cerebral Infarction.diagnosis.physiopathology Electric Stimulation Evoked Potentials, Somatosensory.physiology Female Follow-Up Studies Humans Male Median Nerve.physiology Middle Aged Monitoring, Physiologic Neural Conduction.physiology Neurologic Examination Prognosis Reaction Time.physiology Reference Values Time Factors Tomography, X-Ray Computed |
