Brainstem 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...

OBJECTIVE To determine the brainstem auditory evoked response (BAER) abnormalities and their reversibility in neonates with birth asphyxia. DESIGN Prospective case control study. SETTING Tertiary care teaching hospital. METHODS 30 term Neonates with 5-min Apgar < 6 and hypoxic ischemic encephalopathy (HIE) underwent BAER testing with follow up at 3 months.

متن کاملBrainstem auditory evoked response in normal term neonates.
Brainstem auditory evoked response (BAER) is a reliable test for neonatal auditory and neurological dysfunction and it permits early diagnosis and rehabilitation. The purpose of this study is to demonstrate latencies of BAER in normal term neonates in order to obtain reference values in a university hospital. BAER was performed in the second day of life in 47 normal newborns (25 male, 22 female...
متن کاملReversibility of brainstem evoked response audiometry abnormalities at 3 months in term newborns with hyperbilirubinemia.
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...
