PURPOSE: Recently, recording of sensory nerve action potentials (SNAPs) of the inferior alveolar nerve (IAN) was described and is used as a diagnostic test of traumatic neuropathic trigeminal disorders. The technique is limited to IAN damage; therefore, we adapted the technique to the maxillary nerve, which is also frequently injured by either trauma or orthognathic surgery.
PATIENTS AND METHODS: Fourteen healthy volunteers participated in this methodologic study in which the infraorbital nerve (ION) was stimulated with 2 needle electrodes. The SNAPs were recorded from the maxillary nerve with a unipolar needle electrode close to the foramen rotundum.
RESULTS: The mean latency of the SNAPs was 0.73 ms (95% CI, 0.55 to 0.85 ms) with a 0.08+/-0.09 ms interside difference. The mean baseline to peak amplitude was 31.3+/-7.0 microV (95% CI, 24.2 to 38.3 microV) with a 6.5+/-32.4 microV interside difference. Repeated tests within a session test demonstrated no significant differences in the latency data (ANOVA: P= .225) or amplitude data (ANOVA: P= .44). Stimulus-response curves indicated that the SNAPs saturated at 5.1+/-4.4 mA stimulus intensity. In 1 subject, stimulation of the mental nerve elicited SNAPs (latency: 1.6 ms; amplitude 38 microV) in accordance with published values. A local anesthetic block of the ION was associated with a distinct decay of the SNAP in 1 subject.
CONCLUSION: We suggest that SNAPs of the maxillary nerve can be a valuable technique for a comprehensive examination of the trigeminal system.
