Following the exclusion of duplicate reports, unrelated articles, non-SCI journals, and papers covering a similar topic published in a later period, 43 relevant papers were ultimately selected.Conclusions and RelevanceThe ocular and cervical VEMP testing using galvanic stimuli should be accompanied by testing with acoustic or vibratory stimuli to precisely delineate the affected receptors and/or afferents in audiovestibular disorders. Clinical application of the gVEMP test in audiovestibular disorders includes: (1) Evaluating the involvement of vestibular afferents; (2) Assessing the residual function of the vestibular system; and (3) Predicting the outcome of audiovestibular disorders.encervical vestibular-evoked myogenic potential (cVEMP)galvanic vestibular-evoked myogenic potential (gVEMP)ocular vestibular-evoked myogenic potential (oVEMP)vestibular afferentjournal article10.1177/1916021625141514341566896
