Abstract
Objective:To establish detection methods of air-conducted sound elicited vestibular-evoked myogenic potentials (ACS-VEMPs) in guinea pigs, including cervical vstibular-evoked myogenic potential (cVEMP) and ocular vestibular evoked myogenic potential (oVEMP). Method:Eleven healthy (250-350 g) guinea pigs (22 ears) were selected and underwent conventional ACS-cVEMP and ACS-oVEMP examinations. Parameters of waveforms were recorded. Result:The ACS-cVEMP and ACS-oVEMP could be elicited in 77.27% and 59.09% guinea pigs,respectively;threshold was (107.1±14.6)dB SPL and (115.5±15.6)dB SPL for ACS-cVEMP and ACS-oVEMP;n1,p1 latency for cVEMP was (7.4±1.5)ms and (9.3±1.6)ms,(6.4±1.4)ms and (8.1±1.8)ms for oVEMP;amlipude was (15.4±8.6)μV and (11.4±6.0)μV for cVEMP and oVEMP respectively. No statistical difference could be found in above parameters between ACS-cVEMP and ACS-oVEMP (P>0.05). Conclusion:Both ACS-cVEMP and ACS-oVEMP could be elicited in guinea pigs.
