Comparison between click and CE-CHIRP® stimuli in neonatal hearing screening

Comparison of click and CE-chirp stimuli on Brainstem Auditory Evoked Potential recording Comparação dos estímulos clique e CE-chirp no registro do Potencial Evocado Auditivo de Tronco Encefálico

Purpose: To compare the latencies and amplitudes of wave V on the Brainstem Auditory Evoked Potential (BAEP) recording obtained with click and CE-chirp stimuli and the presence or absence of waves I, III and V in high intensities. Methods: Cross-sectional study with 12 adults with audiometric thresholds ≤15 dBHL (24 ears) and mean age of 27 years. The parameters used for the recording with both...

[Neonatal hearing screening].

Auditory deprivation in early life significantly effects speech, language, cognition and learning development. The importance of neonatal hearing screening in order to detect and manage children with hearing impairment during the critical period before three years of age can't be neglected. The neonatal hearing screening program at Veterans General Hospital, Taipei, under a cooperation of audio...

Neonatal screening for hearing impairment.

Scope of this discussion Hearing impairment in childhood may be conductive or sensorineural or a combination of the two (mixed) with additive eVects. Impairments aVect one or both ears, vary from mild to profound in degree, and may be congenital, acquired, transient, fluctuating, recurrent, progressive, or permanent. Screening positive for hearing impairment at any age leads firstly to the need...
