Recording of electrical-evoked responses from a remote field in the vestibular part of the eighth nerve. A preliminary technical report.
The paper discusses the results of the author's own studies concerning the recording of electrical responses evoked from a remote field in the vestibular part of the eighth nerve. The studies are of experimental nature and they were carried out repetitively in guinea pigs. Particular attention is paid to an apparatus specially designed and constructed, permitting to obtain stimulation of adequate quality of vestibular organs, and to receive and average short (up to 10 ms) evoked vestibular potentials. Different variants of elimination of bioelectrical muscular disturbances and of the auditory pathway are proposed.
