- Abstract: Objective The experimental method of cervical vestibular evoked myogenic potential(cVEMP)with high retest reliability was designed to verify the accuracy of locating sternocleidomastoid muscle in mice.Methods Three 2-month-old ICR male mice were selected,one of which was dissected to locate the sternocleidomastoid muscle,while the other two were used to design the experimental plan to verify the accuracy of localization.Results The recording electrode positioned on the sternocleidomastoid muscle of mice can repeatedly elicit clear cVEMP waveform.Conclusion The cVEMP waveform with high retest reliability can be measured in both experimental mice,suggesting that the localization of sternocleidomastoid muscle in this research is accurate.
