title: Developments for recording lumbosacral evoked potentials.
abstract: Detailed measurement of lumbosacral evoked potentials is usually only feasible using sophisticated, multichannel neurophysiological equipment. This paper describes the recording technique, and the additional equipment developed for use with a high-quality two-channel recording system, the Dantec Neuromatic 2000M, to facilitate the routine measurement of these potentials. The characteristic feature is a microprocessor based control unit, which allows switching of multiple input channels prior to preamplification and detects the electrocardiogram to trigger the stimulus with a variable time delay.
