Audiograms derived from the brain stem response

C Mitchell, J D Clemis

    The Laryngoscope
    |December 1, 1977

    Summary
    This summary is machine-generated.

    Brain stem electric response (BER) audiograms derived from tone bursts closely match conventional audiograms in both normal and hearing-impaired subjects. This method offers a reliable way to assess hearing thresholds.

    Area of Science:

    • Audiology
    • Neuroscience
    • Hearing Science

    Background:

    • Accurate hearing threshold measurement is crucial for diagnosing hearing loss.
    • Conventional audiometry can be time-consuming and challenging for certain patient populations.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To evaluate the efficacy of brain stem electric response (BER) audiometry in deriving hearing thresholds.
    • To compare BER-derived audiograms with conventional behavioral audiograms.

    Main Methods:

    • Utilized 19 normal and 22 hearing-impaired subjects.
    • Determined hearing thresholds using behavioral continuous tone, behavioral tone burst, and brain stem electric response (BER) with tone bursts.
    • Compared BER thresholds with behavioral thresholds for each subject.

    Main Results:

    • Audiograms derived from BER thresholds showed favorable comparison with conventional audiograms.
    • The study demonstrated the potential for deriving audiograms from BER thresholds.

    Conclusions:

    • Brain stem electric response (BER) audiometry can provide reliable audiograms comparable to traditional methods.
    • BER-derived audiograms offer a viable alternative for hearing threshold assessment, though BER itself does not represent hearing perception.
