A new neurogenic vestibular evoked potential (N6) recorded with the use of air-conducted sound.

Abstract
Neurogenic vestibular evoked potentials that are recorded from the scalp have so far been recorded in the form of N3 (click air-conducted), N5 (tone air-conducted), and P10 (bone-conducted stimulus) waveforms. The purpose of this study is to find other vestibular waveforms obtained with air-conducted sound.

The experiments were organized into 4 parts: 1) topographic scalp mapping; 2) determining the consistency in appearance of candidate vestibular waveforms; 3) further characteristics such as their relationship to vestibular evoked myogenic potentials, sensitivity to 5-kHz tone, and threshold of activation; and (D) recording of the new vestibular waveforms in a case of hearing loss.
A montage was discovered, O2-P3 and O1-P4 with left and right ear stimulation respectively, that yielded a negative wave at 6 milliseconds after stimulus onset and was labeled N6. It is not a vestibular evoked myogenic potential, disappears with 5-kHz tone stimuli, has a high threshold of stimulation, and is present in a case of hearing loss.
