Brainstem auditory evoked potentials and clinical findings were examined in 18 children over the age of 5 years who were born with myelomeningocoele which was closed at birth, and whose hydrocephalus was managed by long term shunting in most of them. The potentials were compared with age and sex matched normal subjects and with four patients with hydrocephalus only. All but one had an abnormal ...

Cerebellopontine angle tumors including schwannoma or meningioma are located around the vestibular nerve. In case of surgical removal, intraoperative neurophysiologic monitoring (IONM) modality such as brainstem auditory evoked potential (BAEP) could detect its neurologic function. We demonstrate 2 cases cerebellopontine surgery using BAEP an IONM modality. And we also suggest how to deal with ...

Considerable progress has been made in our understanding of the remarkable fidelity with which the human auditory brainstem represents key acoustic features of the speech signal. The brainstem response to speech can be assessed noninvasively by examining scalp-recorded evoked potentials. Morphologically, two main components of the scalp-recorded brainstem response can be differentiated, a trans...

BACKGROUND Middle and late latency auditory evoked potentials. AIM to verify the occurrence of middle and late latency auditory evoked potentials disorders in adults with Acquired Immunodeficiency Syndrome (AIDS). METHOD Middle and late latency auditory evoked potentials of 8 individuals with AIDS, with ages ranging from 10 to 51 years, with normal hearing, or with sensoryneural hearing los...

Since its inception by Jewett and Williston in the late 1960s, auditory brainstem response (ABR) has been an indispensable diagnostic tool, used audiologists around world. Click-evoked ABR testing proves to be a reliable as it provides objective representation of function, estimate hearing thresholds ability pinpoint potential issue neural pathway. The present study describes state-of-the-art a...
