This study established normative bone conduction hearing data for dogs, finding no significant differences between breeds or application methods. These results support using bone conduction auditory brainstem response (ABR) to diagnose canine hearing loss.

Area of Science:

  • Veterinary Medicine
  • Neuroscience
  • Audiology

Background:

  • Auditory brainstem response (ABR) is crucial for diagnosing canine hearing disorders.
  • A lack of published normative data hinders ABR's diagnostic utility in dogs.
  • Establishing normative data is essential for accurate interpretation of ABR results.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To obtain normative bone conduction auditory brainstem response (ABR) data in dogs.
  • To evaluate two methods for applying bone vibrators: manual and weighted (500 g).
  • To compare normative data between Dalmatians and Jack Russell terriers.

Main Methods:

  • Auditory brainstem response (ABR) testing was performed on 20 Dalmatians and 20 Jack Russell terriers.
  • Bone conduction thresholds were measured without masking.

Related Experiment Videos

  • Two vibrator application methods were assessed: manual and using a 500 g weight.

    • Main Results:

    • No significant difference in hearing thresholds was found between the two dog breeds.
    • No significant difference in hearing thresholds was observed between the manual and weighted vibrator application methods.
    • The mean hearing threshold approximated 0 decibels normal hearing level (dB nHL), aligning with human norms.

    Conclusions:

    • Normative bone conduction ABR data were successfully obtained for dogs.
    • Bone conduction thresholds can reliably confirm conductive hearing impairment in dogs.
    • The findings facilitate more accurate diagnosis of hearing disorders in canine patients.
