Our objective was to explore the best predictive timing of short-latency somatosensory evoked potentials (SLSEP) and brainstem auditory evoked potentials (BAEP) for unfavorable outcomes in patients with early stage severe stroke. One hundred fifty-six patients with acute severe supratentorial stroke were monitored according to SLSEP, BAEP, and the Glasgow Coma Scale (GCS) at 1–3 days and 4–7 days after the onset of stroke. All patients were followed up for outcomes at 6 months after onset using the modified Rankin Scale (mRS), with a score of 5-6 considered unfavorable. The predictive values of SLSEP, BAEP, and the GCS at 1–3 days were compared with 4–7 days after onset. Our results show that, according to the analysis of prognostic authenticity, the predictive values of SLSEP and BAEP at 4–7 days after stroke onset improved when compared with the values at 1–3 days for unfavorable outcomes. Most of the patients with change of worsening evoked potentials from 1–3 days to 4–7 days after onset had unfavorable outcomes. In conclusion, SLSEP and BAEP assessed at 4–7 days after onset predicted unfavorable outcomes for acute severe stroke patients. The worsening values of SLSEP and BAEP between 1–3 days and 4–7 days also present a prognostic value.
