Auditory Steady State Responses in Normal-Hearing and Hearing-Impaired Adults

Hearing threshold estimation in infants using auditory steady-state responses.

Successful early intervention in children with permanent hearing loss requires assessment techniques that can accurately reflect the behavioral audiogram in infancy. This retrospective study compared auditory steady-state response (ASSR) findings from subjects tested in the first three months of life with subsequently obtained behavioral hearing levels. ASSR audiograms were established using am...

Cortical auditory evoked potentials ( CAEPs ) in ( un ) aided normal - hearing and hearing - impaired adults

Cortical Auditory Evoked Potentials in (Un)aided Normal-Hearing and Hearing-Impaired Adults.

Cortical auditory evoked potentials (CAEPs) are influenced by the characteristics of the stimulus, including level and hearing aid gain. Previous studies have measured CAEPs aided and unaided in individuals with normal hearing. There is a significant difference between providing amplification to a person with normal hearing and a person with hearing loss. This study investigated this difference...

Comparative study between pure tone audiometry and auditory steady-state responses in normal hearing subjects.

INTRODUCTION Auditory steady-state responses (ASSR) are an important tool to detect objectively frequency-specific hearing thresholds. Pure-tone audiometry is the gold-standard for hearing evaluation, although sometimes it may be inconclusive, especially in children and uncooperative adults. AIM Compare pure tone thresholds (PT) with ASSR thresholds in normal hearing subjects. MATERIALS AND...

auditory steady-state response thresholds in adults with conductive and mild to moderate sensorineural hearing loss

conclusions the assr can accurately predict the degree and configuration of hearing loss and discriminate the normal hearing from mild or moderate hearing loss and mild from moderate hearing loss, except for 500 hz. the air-conducted assr could not define the type of hearing loss. results the assr accurately estimates the behavioral thresholds as well as flat and sloping configurations. there w...
