BACKGROUND:With the development of industrial society and traffic, the incidence of spinal cord injury has gradualy increased. In addition to radiological laboratory examinations, the neurophysiological test also becomes an effective way of auxiliary examination. Due to the high accuracy and easy operating, neurophysiological test is widely used and the evoked potentials play a role in this project. OBJECTIVE:To summarize the application of somatosensory evoked potentials and motor evoked potentials in rabbits of spinal cord injury. METHODS:A computer-based online research of CNKI and PubMed databases was performed with the key words of “spinal cord injury; evoked potentials; animal models” in Chinese and English. Finaly 33 articles were included in the analysis according to the inclusion and exclusion criteria. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:The operational approach, waveform analysis, application value, influencing factor of somatosensory evoked potentials and motor evoked potentials were determined in details, the correlation between evoked potentials and prognosis assessment in animals was also detected. Somatosensory evoked potentials is a good indicator for the evaluation of dorsal funiculus of spinal cord, it is easy to operate and reflects the changes of sensory functions. Motor evoked potentials can provide sensitive diagnosis of spinal cord diseases, and they wil be used as a means to assess the spinal cord injury during rehabilitation. The combination of the two can provide a more accurate result.%背景：随着工业社会的发展和交通的发达，脊髓损伤的发病率也逐年升高。脊髓损伤的辅助检查手段除了影像学以外，神经电生理技术的应用也越来越广泛。其中诱发电位因其准确率高、操作简便应用较多。目的：综述躯体感觉诱发电位及运动诱发电位在兔脊髓损伤中的应用情况。方法：通过检索中国知网、PubMed数据库，输入“脊髓损伤，诱发电位，动物模型，Spinal cord injury，evoked potential，animal model”等关键词进行检索，最终纳入文章33篇进入结果分析。结果与结论：详细阐述了体感诱发电位与运动诱发电位在动物实验中的操作方法、波形分析、应用价值、影响因素及诱发电位与动物预后功能评价。其中体感诱发电位是反应脊髓后索功能的很好指标，操作简便，对检测患者感觉功能的变化有很好的指导作用。运动诱发电位能为各种脊髓疾病提供敏感而精确的诊断，尤其在患者治疗和康复期间可作为重要的评估手段。而两者连用效果更精确。
