| Research Abstract |
In order to prepare an animal model of the ocular vestibular evoked myogenic potentials (OVEMP), an intense short tone burst was applied to the unilateral ear of the alert monkeys and evoked responses were evaluated by the surface electrode stuck on the buccal skin. These responses were a negative-positive waveform with a short latency, a high-threshold, contralateral predominance, and influenced by the eye position. These characteristics were similar to those of the OVEMP in humans, suggesting that these buccal responses might be a useful animal model of human OVEMP.
