Abstract:
Brainstem auditory evoked potentials (BAEPs) test the function of the auditory nerve and auditory pathways in the brainstem. BAEPs are electrical responses of the auditory pathways that occur within 10 to 15 milliseconds of an appropriate acoustic stimulus in normal subjects. This article presents basic information about the test, its methodology, interpretation, and most common clinical applications. It is designed to be used for educational purposes and is especially useful for beginner END technologists.

01:19Brainstem
The brainstem, located inferior to the brain and superior to the spinal cord, serves as a bridge between the cerebrum and the spinal cord. It plays a vital role in relaying information and controlling critical life functions. It comprises three primary regions: the midbrain, pons, and medulla oblongata.
The Midbrain
The midbrain is located beneath the diencephalon and connects the cerebrum with the lower parts of the brain. The cerebral peduncles are prominent midbrain structures that house the...

01:15Auditory Pathway
Auditory pathways constitute the complex neural circuits responsible for transmitting and interpreting auditory information from the peripheral auditory system to the brain. Sound waves are initially captured by the outer ear, funneled through the ear canal, and reach the tympanic membrane (eardrum). These vibrations are transmitted via the middle ear's ossicles to the inner ear's cochlea.
