This study shows that in our hands, the test-retest reliability of the ROVEMP is not optimal. Measurements with higher reference amplitude had a better quality, higher reproducibility, and increased diagnostic yield. We caution against the use of ROVEMP measurements of lower amplitude in clinical practice. In addition, given the correlation between age and amplitude, age matching of healthy control subjects and patients is essential in future studies.
