Somatosensory evoked potentials in the assessment of peripheral neuropathies: Commented results of a survey among French-speaking practitioners and recommendations for practice.

Background: Somatosensory evoked potentials (SSEPs) are increasingly performed for the assessment of peripheral neuropathies, but no practical guidelines have yet been established in this specific application.

Study Aim: To determine the relevant indication criteria and optimal technical parameters for SSEP recording in peripheral neuropathy investigation.

Methods: A survey was conducted among the French-speaking practitioners with experience of SSEP recording in the context of peripheral neuropathies.
