An Experimental Study of Middle-ear Vibrations in Gerbils
RÉSUMÉ ABSTRACT The Mongolian gerbil has become increasingly popular in middle-ear research, as it is low in cost and has easily approachable middle-ear structures. The goal of this thesis is to present vibration measurements on the gerbil eardrum. Displacement frequency responses are acquired in five gerbils at three or four points along the manubrium and at up to 8 points on the eardrum. We u...
متن کاملAn Experimental Study of Middle-ear Vibrations in Rats
Hearing impairment is one of the most common disabilities. Animal models have been shown to be valuable tools in auditory research, including studies of middle-ear mechanics. Rats are potentially very useful for this purpose. They are low in cost, they are genetically similar to humans, and the middle-ear structures are easily approachable. The goal of the present study is to characterize the f...
متن کاملAn Experimental Study of Middle-ear Vibrations in Gerbils
RÉSUMÉ The Mongolian gerbil has been widely used in middle-ear research, as it is low in cost and has easily approachable middle-ear structures. The goal of this study was to present vibration measurements of the gerbil tympanic membrane. A single-point laser Doppler vibrometer was used to measure displacement frequency responses in twelve gerbils at multiple points on the tympanic membrane. A ...
متن کاملVibrations in the human middle ear
BACKGROUND Middle ear surgery techniques can improve hearing destroyed by disease, but results of treatment are difficult to predict. Therefore, researchers use a Laser Doppler Vibrometer to measure vibrations of human middle ear ossicles. MATERIAL/METHODS Measurements of ossicular chain vibrations are performed on fresh human temporal bone specimens using Laser Doppler Vibrometer. Vibrations...
متن کاملMiddle Ear Prosthesis with Bactericidal Efficacy-In Vitro Investigation.
Materials used in ossicular replacement prostheses must possess appropriate biological properties, such as biocompatibility, stability, no cytotoxicity. Due to the risk of infection (otitis media and chronic otitis media), it is desirable to use an antibacterial agent for illness prevention during the ossicular reconstruction. The goal of this work was to observe biological properties of a new ...
