Brainstem auditory evoked responses in brainstem infarction.
Brainstem auditory evoked responses (BAERs) were recorded in 40 patients with clinically definite brainstem infarction, and results were compared to localizations from physical signs and CT scans. The BAER was abnormal in 92% of patients with evidence on physical examination of dysfunction of lateral structures in the pons or midbrain. Normal BAERs were seen with medially-situated or medullary ...
متن کاملAuditory evoked potential responses in chronic malnourished children.
Auditory evoked potential responses were recorded in 20 chronic malnourished children in age group 3-6 years and in 20 healthy age and sex matched controls using an 5200 Neuropack plus ( Nihon Koden, Japan) evoked potential recorder. The absolute peak latencies, inter peak latencies and amplitude of waves I-V of brainstem auditory evoked potentials (BAEPs) were analyzed. The mid latency respons...
متن کاملBrainstem auditory evoked potential responses in iron-deficient anemic children.
Iron deficiency is a major health problem in developing countries manifesting not only as overt anemia but also involving the CNS resulting in cognitive and behavioral deficits. Iron is an important nutrient and essential element involved in myelin formation and neurotransmitter synthesis and thus contributes to normal neurological activity. Hypomyelination has been reported in iron deficient s...
متن کاملAUDITORY BRAINSTEM RESPONSES (ABR) IN HYPERBILIRUBINEMIC NEWBORNS
To evaluate the changes of ABR values in hyperbilirubinemic newborns, 85 cases with severe jaundice (total bilirubin levels over 16 mg/dL and direct bilirubin less than 2 mg/dL) were selected from those admitted to Children's Medical Center by simple sampling method. These infants had no other problem except jaundice. ABR was taken before treatment in all cases and in some (10 cases) after...
متن کاملBrainstem Auditory Evoked Responses in Opioid Dependence
The brainstem auditory evoked responses were studied in 19 opioid dependent subjects and 20 normal healthy volunteers. The absolute latencies of wave III, V and the interpeak latencies I-III, III-V and I-V were significantly prolonged in the experimental group. Implications are discussed.
