SSEP ALL FOUR LIMBS

Somatosensory Evoked Potential (SSEP) is an advanced neurophysiological test used to evaluate the integrity of sensory pathways that carry signals from the limbs to the spinal cord and up to the brain. During the test, small, controlled electrical stimuli are applied to nerves in the wrist, ankle, or other areas. Surface electrodes placed along the spine and scalp then record how quickly and effectively these signals travel through the nervous system. By analyzing the timing and strength of these responses, doctors can determine whether the sensory pathways are functioning normally or if there is a delay or block in conduction. SSEP is widely used in diagnosing spinal cord injuries, multiple sclerosis, nerve root compression, peripheral neuropathies, and other conditions affecting sensory pathways. It is also valuable during surgeries such as spine operations, where continuous monitoring helps prevent nerve damage. The test is non-invasive, safe, and highly sensitive, making it an essential tool for detecting subtle abnormalities that may not be visible on MRI or CT scans.

1. No special requirements. 
2. Patient may feel some pain of needle pricks / current stimulation 
3. Apply no body lotion. 
4. Bring old record.
5. Patient required to lie down with no movement . 
6.Following directions of applying force in opposite direction is important for test. So it is not possible in small children who can  not follow directions. Similarly it is not possible after oral / IV sedation. 
7. wearing loose clothes.

TAT Policy

The Turnaround Time (TAT) for a test depends on the following factors:

  • Registration date and time
  • Type of scan or test
  • Scan time or sample collection time

Please note that in uncommon circumstances, TAT may be delayed due to the complexity of the test or reasons beyond our control. You will be informed about the estimated TAT at the time of registration or after completion of the test.
