Visual Evoked Potential Reliability during Non-Cranial Surgery

Overview

About this study

The goal of this study is to determine the optimal stimulating and recording protocol for visual evoked potentials (VEP’s) during non-cranial surgery using total intravenous anesthesia (TIVA). The study will also determine if VEP’s remain reliably stable in amplitude and latency during non-cranial surgery using total intravenous anesthesia (TIVA), and also determine what factors predict poorly reliable VEP’s during non-cranial surgery using TIVA.
