✦ Synopsis

Electrophysiological monitoring of selected neural pathways of the brain, brainstem, spinal cord and peripheral nervous system has become mandatory in some surgery of the nervous system where preventable neural injury can occur. Evoked potentials are relatively simple methods of testing the integrity of various aspects of the nervous system. This review covers the variety of evoked potentials that can be monitored and outlines the principles of their measurement. Their use in specific situations and how factors such as anaesthesia might affect them is presented.

The auditory evoked potential termed the middle latency response (MLR) has been suggested as an indicator of adequacy of anaesthesia during surgery. However, the response is small and must be extracted from high levels of background noise. A key consideration in using the MLR for clinical monitoring

**Summary** We have studied the effects of nitrous oxide on the auditory evoked response index (AAIℒ‐index) derived from the A‐line monitoring device during sevoflurane anaesthesia in 21 patients undergoing minor ambulatory surgery. During sevoflurane anaesthesia with an AAIℒ‐index <β€Š30, the additio

The somatosensory evoked potentials (SEPs) and visual evoked potentials (VEPs) were studied in 19 patients with multiple sclerosis; 17 controls were studied during fever (38.0 degrees - 39.7 degrees C) and 2-3 days following return to normal temperature. The latencies of components N20 and P114 were
