The effect of audiometric configuration on the auditory brain stem response was studied in a large patient sample, and wave I latencies, wave V latencies, and the I-V interwave intervals were compared to those from a previous report. Patients with notched hearing losses showed longer wave V latencies and I-V interwave intervals than those with other audiometric configurations, but the magnitude of the effect was relatively small, and the confidence limit for cochlear diagnosis was essentially the same as that based upon a cochlear hearing loss population without regard to audiometric configuration.

scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
