Application of auditory evoked potentials and somatosensory evoked potentials in coma patients caused by traumatic brain injury

Zifeng Dai

Abstract

Monitoring the brain function of comatose patients caused by brain injury can predict clinic outcome and direct therapy. Combined brainstem auditory evoked potential(BAEP) and Somatosensory evoked potential (SSEP) can explain the function from brainstem to cerebral cortex. The studies aimed to conclude the clinic use of BAEP and SSEP. Key words: Brain injury; Brainstem auditory evoked potential; Somatosensory evoked potential; Coma
