“…ABR responses were obtained for each ear using alternating clicks presented at a rate of 11.1Hz, with white noise presented in the non-test ear. Stimulus intensity was determined based on the hearing thresholds for the poorer ear [for exact procedures, see Baker andSturzebecher et al, 1985]. ABR responses were categorized using the following criteria: abnormally prolonged interpeak or interaural wave differences, and/or absence of later waves (III-V), and/or poor waveform morphology inconsistent with the degree of hearing loss.…”

This study presents the neuro-otological findings of 523 patients attending a tertiary vestibular clinic with migraine- and nonmigraine-related dizziness. Subjects were categorized into one of 4 groups, definite migrainous vertigo, probable migrainous vertigo, vestibular disorder coexisting with migraine and nonmigraine-related dizziness. No notable relationship was found between the numbers of abnormal findings between the groups for the majority of the neuro-otological tests. However, there was a significant trend in emetic response to caloric testing. The definite migrainous vertigo group were at least 4 times more likely to be nauseous to caloric testing than any other migraine category. This difference was independent of the magnitude of caloric responses between the emetic migraine groups. While further investigation is required, this study has potentially identified that nauseous/emetic response to caloric stimulation may be a distinguishing factor between migrainous vertigo and other vestibular disorders including those with a coexisting history of migraine.

“…For this reason, the ABR test results obtained from the left and right ears of each patient were not compared with each other. In addition, previous comparisons have been reported in several studies in the literature and have clearly indicated that there is no difference in hearing between the two ears [6,24]. …”

Background/Aim: There is currently no objective evaluation of hearing in patients with hydrocephalus (HCP), and we could not find any study in the literature comprising a sufficient number of patients with a high level of scientific evidence. In the current study, we used the auditory brainstem response (ABR) test to assess whether hearing function in patients with HCP is altered after ventriculoperitoneal shunt surgery. Methods: In total, 20 newborn patients with HCP (13 female, 7 male) were enrolled in this study. For each patient, ABR testing was performed at three time points: 1 day prior to the operation and on days 7 and 90 after the operation. ABRs using click stimuli of 90, 70, 50 and 30 dB nHL (normal hearing level) were achieved for V-wave latency, and I-III and I-IV interpeak latencies for both ears were recorded. Variance analysis for parametric data and Tukey's post hoc honest significant difference test were used to demonstrate the relationship between the results obtained from the different recording periods. Results were considered significant at p < 0.05, and 95% confidence intervals were calculated. Results: The mean values of the ABR tests were compared between the pre- and postoperative results, which showed an increase (faster transmission) of nerve conduction velocity of 0.2 ms. The results were not statistically significant for 50 and 90 dB (p > 0.05) but were significant for 30 and 70 dB (p < 0.05). Conclusion: Diagnosis in hydrocephalic patients is important not only for the treatment but also for the prevention of HCP-associated complications. Early treatment appears to be promising in terms of auditory benefit. Prompt diagnosis and treatment are therefore essential as soon as possible.

“…The most common diagnostic criteria are based upon measurements of ABR wave latencies (I, 111, V), interwave intervals (1-V, 1-111, 111-V), interaural latency differences, and interaural interwave intervals. Although retrocochlear disease has the larger effect on ABR latencies, cochlear disease can also affect the ABR, and the effects of audiometric configuration on the ABR have been investigated (Coats & Martin, 1977;Gorga, Worthington, Reiland, Beauchaine, & Goldgar, 1985;Jerger & Mauldin, 1978;Moller & Blegvad, 1976;Rosenhamer, Lindstrom, & Lundborg, 198 1;Sturzebecher, Kevanishvilli, Werbs, Meyer, & Schmidt, 1985;Yamada, Kodera, 8~ Yagi, 1979). Most of these studies focused on the differential effects of audiometric configuration in subjects with cochlear hearing losses of flat, low-, or high-frequency configurations.…”

The Effect of Cochlear Hearing Loss on Auditory Brain Stem Response Latency

et al. 1992

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.
