Direct noninvasive monitoring of spinal cord motor function during thoracic aortic occlusion: Use of motor evoked potentials John C. Laschinger, M.D., Jeffrey Owen, Ph.D., Michael Rosenbloom, M.D., James L. Cox, M.D., Nicholas T.

Fig. 2 Normal MEP recordings. Note progression of conduction down the spinal cord (T-10 to L-4). Normal response is biphasic at all spinal cord levels.

Fig. 3 MEP response signifying early ischemia. Note that progression of conduction down the cord is maintained but second peak (P2) is absent at all levels.

Fig. 4 MEP response signifying late ischemia. Note loss of conduction at all levels with loss of both peaks (P1 and P2).
