Abstract
Objective To compare the effects of three different training patterns of MOTOmed training on the somatosensory evoked potentials (SEPs) of healthy youths. Methods Ten healthy young volunteers received training in patterned sequences of passive movement, active movement with no resistance and active movement with resistance. Each pattern lasted for 30 minutes and SEPs were examined before and after 90 minutes of training. The amplitude and latency of N9 and P40 were recorded. Results All three training patterns heightened SEP amplitude and lengthened SEP latency, but active training had the most obvious effect on amplitude. The rates of change of am-plitude after each training pattern had significant differences, which was most obvious after training the resistance training pattern. Conclusions MOTOmed motor training can excite the cerebral cortex and up-regulate SEP ampli-tude. Active movement with resistance is the most effective among the three patterns tested. Key words: MOTOmed trainning; Somatosensory evoked potential; Ng; P40
