Respiratory potentials recorded from the human hindbrain.
Using a nasopharyngeal and a neck electrode slow potentials synchronous with respiration were registered. Similar potentials were recorded in a patient with apnoea due to widespread paralysis of the Landry type. The potentials are thought to be of medullary origin.
