Özet

Vestibular evoked myogenic potentials (VEMPs) are commonly used noninvasive electrophysiological test methods in clinics. VEMPs are short-latency muscle reflex responses triggered by stimulation of peripheral otolith organs. The inhibitory myogenic response measured over the sternocleidomastoid muscle is cervical VEMP (cVEMP); the excitatory myogenic response measured over the extraocular muscles, the inferior oblique, is the ocular VEMP (oVEMP). cVEMP is characterized by a biphasic wave in the form of one positive peak (P1/P13) occurring at an average of 13th milliseconds and one negative peak (N1/N23) occurring at an average of 23rd milliseconds. oVEMP is characterized by a biphasic wave in the form of one negative peak (N1/N10) occurring at an average of 10th milliseconds and one positive peak (P1/P16) occurring at an average of 16th milliseconds. Stimulus type affects VEMP findings. Click stimulus was first used in VEMP studies. The stimulus that effectively stimulates the otolith organs and generates the highest amplitude waves is being investigated. 500 Hertz (Hz) tone burst stimulus is more effective than click stimulus in VEMP tests and its clinical use has become widespread. Compressed high-intensity radar pulse (CHIRP) is an acoustic stimulus that is effective in auditory electrophysiology. VEMP in responses to CHIRP stimulus was reported in recent studies. In this review, the findings of studies examining VEMP responses triggered by CHIRP stimuli are integrated. The aim of this review is to evaluate whether the CHIRP stimulus is an effective stimulus in VEMP tests.
