The effect of cochlear implantation on vestibular evoked myogenic potential in children

The Laryngoscope Feb 14, 2020

Li MMed X, et al. - In this single-center case series study, researchers evaluated the impacts of unilateral cochlear implantation (CI) on otolith function by observing the changes in ocular vestibular evoked myogenic potential (oVEMP) and cervical vestibular evoked myogenic potential (cVEMP) in children. Among 35 children, the oVEMP and cVEMP elicited by air-conducted sound were preoperatively analyzed and at 5 days, 1 month, and 2 months after surgery. Data reported that the response rates of oVEMPs and cVEMPs before CI, respectively, were 81.4% and 91.4%. OVEMPs and cVEMPs have been decreased in the implanted side by 37.1% and 68.6%, respectively, 5 days after CI. The value of VEMP testing in the clinical setting was confirmed and that absent VEMPs could indicate impairment of otolith function after CI.
