Department of Intraoperative Neuromonitoring Mount Sinai West Hospital, New York City, USA.
Objective: Brainstem trigeminal-hypoglossal reflexes (THRs), also known as the jaw-tongue reflexes, coordinate the position of the tongue in the mouth in relation to the jaw movement during oromotor behaviors such as mastication, swallowing, vocalization, and breathing. Their use in brainstem surgery however, has never been assessed in spite of its potential benefit possibly due to the lack of a methodology to elicit these reflexes under general anesthesia.
Methods: We proposed a technique to elicit the THRs during total intravenous anesthesia (TIVA) consisting on a V3 infrazygomatic train stimulation paradigm and recording from the Styloglossus (31 patients) and the Genioglossus (21 patients) muscles to elicit long latency responses.
