Introducci?n y objetivo: A principios de los a?os 90, Colebath y Halmagyi demuestran que es posible medir el potencial miog?nico evocado del m?sculo esternocleidomastoideo a partir de una estimulaci?n ac?stica o vibratoria del laberinto, dando nombre a los que desde entonces denominamos ?potenciales evocados miog?nicos vestibulares? (VEMPs: Vestibular-Evoked-Myogenic-Potentials). El objetivo de esta revisi?n consistir? en exponer las bases anatomofuncionales de los VEMPs y describir sus aplicaciones cl?nicas actuales. M?todo: Se trata de un trabajo descriptivo donde, a partir de la bibliograf?a que consideramos m?s destacada, se resumen las caracter?sticas, procedimientos de obtenci?n y utilidad cl?nica de los VEMPs. Resultados y conclusiones: Mediante el registro de VEMPs oculares (oVEMPs) y cervicales (cVEMPs), podemos obtener de forma pr?ctica, informaci?n cl?nica sobre las funciones utricular y sacular. Ambos procedimientos son espec?ficos, sencillos, r?pidos, reproducibles y seguros. Cuando estos resultados se combinan con otras pruebas vestibulares, se consigue llegar a tener un conocimiento funcional de cada uno de los receptores sensoriales del laberinto.
Introduction and objectives: At the beginning of the 1990s, Colebath and Halmagyi demonstrated that measuring the potential myogenic evoked from an acoustic or vibratory stimulation of the labyrinth is possible, giving name to what since then we call Vestibular-Evoked-Myogenic-Potentials (VEMPs). The objective of this review, aims to meet the anatomic-functional bases of the VEMPs and to describe their current clinical applications. Method: This is a descriptive work from the most relevant bibliography, summarizing the features, obtaining procedures and clinical utility of the VEMPs. Results and conclusion: Using the ocular VEMPs (oVEMPs) and cervical (cVEMPs), we can obtain practical, clinical information on the utricular and saccular functions. Both procedures are specific, simple, fast, reproducible and safe. When these results are combined with other vestibular tests, they provide knowledge of the functional of each one of the sensory receptors of the labyrinth.
