| Abstract | The aim of this study was to determine if there is any interhemispheric interaction in somatosensory-evoked potentials (SEPs) by using condition (SI) and test (SII) paired stimulus paradigm. This was examined during both wakefulness and sleep. The SI stimuli were delivered to right median nerve (MN) and SII stimuli were to left MN, with interstimulus interval (ISI) of 0, 5, 10, 20, 50, 100 and 200 ms. Three stimulus modalities (SI, SII, SI + SII) were delivered in cyclic fashion throughout the awake and asleep states. SEPs were obtained as of off-line after grouping the responses according to the wakefulness and sleep stages of II, III/IV and REM. Control SEP showed decreased amplitude of parietal N32–P40 and P40–N60 and increased amplitude of frontal N19–P22 in non-REM sleep as compared to those of wakefulness. The latencies of all peaks (except for P14) were prolonged with greater degree in later components. All these changes returned close to wakefulness during REM sleep. The test response also showed parallel changes with the control responses throughout all ISIs both in wakefulness and sleep. It is concluded that there is no significant inter-hemispheric interaction in sensory input between two hemispheres during both wakefulness and sleep. |
