Effect of vestibular electrical stimulation on the H-reflex. 1983

F Podivinský, and M Jergelová

A study was made of changes of exitability of the H-reflex m. solei under electrical stimulation of the labyrinth in hemiparetic patients with focal ischaemic lesion of the brain. In contrast to healthy persons, the potentiating effect of electrical stimulation of the labyrinth has a longer latency, a clearly lower amplitude and is protracted in time (we may say that the facilitating or potentiating effects are not well synchronized). The results are being interpreted on the basis of our research material and literary data obtained for the most part on experimental animals.

D002545 Brain Ischemia Localized reduction of blood flow to brain tissue due to arterial obstruction or systemic hypoperfusion. This frequently occurs in conjunction with brain hypoxia (HYPOXIA, BRAIN). Prolonged ischemia is associated with BRAIN INFARCTION.

D006429 Hemiplegia Severe or complete loss of motor function on one side of the body. This condition is usually caused by BRAIN DISEASES that are localized to the cerebral hemisphere opposite to the side of weakness. Less frequently, BRAIN STEM lesions; cervical SPINAL CORD DISEASES; PERIPHERAL NERVOUS SYSTEM DISEASES; and other conditions may manifest as hemiplegia. The term hemiparesis (see PARESIS) refers to mild to moderate weakness involving one side of the body.
