Normative Electrophysiological Values in the Pediatric Population: An ISCEV-Compliant Cross‑Sectional Study

2025Open accessAlexandria University

Abstract

<title>Abstract</title> Purpose: To set up age-stratified normative values for full‑field ERG (ffERG), multifocal ERG (mfERG), pattern ERG (PERG), and visual evoked potentials (VEP) in healthy children using ISCEV-standard protocols. Methods: Cross-sectional study on children aged 6 months–16 years. Ophthalmic examination and electrophysiological testing (ffERG, mfERG, PERG, VEP) performed per ISCEV standards. Responses analyzed for amplitude, latency, and age trends. Expected Results: Expect age-dependent increases in ERG/PERG amplitudes and reductions in VEP latencies, with maturation by adolescence. Significance: Provides comprehensive normative pediatric electrophysiology values to enhance diagnostic precision for retinal and optic nerve diseases.
