Normative data for somatosensory evoked potentials from upper limb nerves in middle-aged subjects.
Techniques for obtaining somatosensory evoked potentials after stimulation of radial, median and ulnar nerves are described. Results from a group of 23 healthy middle-aged persons are presented in detail to provide normal value for comparison with results gained from patients. Indications of when these techniques could be useful are summarised.
