The effects of antiepileptic drugs on high-frequency oscillations in somatosensory evoked potentials.

CONCLUSION: Our results demonstrate that SEP-HFOs are sensitive to the action of AEDs on cortical excitability. This effect seems to affect mainly the cortical component of HFOs in the AH and it is related to the number of AEDs taken.
SIGNIFICANCE: SEP-HFOs might be a viable tool to probe cortical excitability changes induced by AEDs.
