AIM To assess the hearing pathway in normal hearing individuals and compare differences associated with gender, age and ear side (left and right). STUDY DESIGN A retrospective study. MATERIALS ...
متن کاملBrainstem Electric Response Audiometry (BERA)in the Evaluation of Hearing Loss in Infants with Cleft Palate
It has been estimated that one child in 500 to 750 live births is born with a cleft palate (Rood & Stool, 1981). A high incidence of middle ear pathology is known to be associated with this problem (Bluestone, 1971). It is generally accepted that this population suffers from Eustachian tube dysfunction which leads in turn to the development of middle ear effusions and conductive hearing loss. T...

BACKGROUND High bilirubin level is toxic to developing brain and auditory system but the current debate surrounds the toxicity of bilirubin in healthy term infants. METHODS Longitudinal observational study to find BERA abnormalities in term newborns with isolated hyperbilirubinemia of 20 mg/dL and more and to follow up babies at 3 months to find out about the reversibility in BERA abnormaliti...
متن کاملBrain stem evoked response audiometry A Review
Brain stem evoked response audiometry (BERA) is a useful objective assessement of hearing. Major advantage of this procedure is its ability to test even infants in whom conventional audiometry may not be useful. This investigation can be used as a screening test for deafness in high risk infants. Early diagnosis and rehabilitation will reduce disability in these children. This article attempts ...

Hearing is the link by which the newborn comes in contact with the world of sound and language. Sense of hearing is a gift to mankind from god, as hearing and speech are the cornerstones of communication. Speech is intimately related to hearing because those with impaired hearing often have speech delay. The aim of the study was to analyze the effectiveness of BERA (Brain stem evoked response a...
