Reversibility of brainstem evoked response audiometry abnormalities at 3 months in term newborns with hyperbilirubinemia.
BACKGROUND High bilirubin level is toxic to developing brain and auditory system but the current debate surrounds the toxicity of bilirubin in healthy term infants. METHODS Longitudinal observational study to find BERA abnormalities in term newborns with isolated hyperbilirubinemia of 20 mg/dL and more and to follow up babies at 3 months to find out about the reversibility in BERA abnormaliti...
متن کاملEffects of Hyperbilirubinemia on Auditory Brainstem Response of Neonates Treated with Phototherapy
Introduction: One of the most common pathologies in neonates is hyperbilirubinemia, which is a good marker for damage to the central nervous system. The sensitivity of the auditory system to bilirubin has been previously documented, with much discrepancy in its effects on Auditory Brainstem Response results. Thus the objective of this study was to evaluate the effects of hyperbilirubinemia on ...
متن کاملBrainstem auditory evoked response in normal term neonates.
Brainstem auditory evoked response (BAER) is a reliable test for neonatal auditory and neurological dysfunction and it permits early diagnosis and rehabilitation. The purpose of this study is to demonstrate latencies of BAER in normal term neonates in order to obtain reference values in a university hospital. BAER was performed in the second day of life in 47 normal newborns (25 male, 22 female...

OBJECTIVE To determine the initial Brainstem Auditory Evoked Response (BAER) abnormalities in neonates with hyperbilirubinemia and the possible reversibility of abnormal BAER after therapy. DESIGN Prospective cohort study. SETTING Tertiary care hospital. SUBJECTS 30 term neonates with hyperbilirubinemia (S. bilirubin < 15 mg/dl) as cases and 25 normal term neonates as controls. METHODS ...
متن کاملBrainstem evoked response audiometry in normal hearing subjects.
UNLABELLED Brainstem Evoked Response Audiometry (BERA) is an objective and non-invasive method of hearing assessment which detects electrical activity from the inner ear to the inferior colliculus. AIM To assess the hearing pathway in normal hearing individuals and compare differences associated with gender, age and ear side (left and right). STUDY DESIGN A retrospective study. MATERIALS ...
