Brain 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 ...

Brainstem evoked response audiometry in normal hearing subjects.

UNLABELLED Brainstem Evoked Response Audiometry (BERA) is an objective and non-invasive method of hearing assessment which detects electrical activity from the inner ear to the inferior colliculus. 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 ...

Brain stems Evoked Response Audiometry Profile in Chronic Renal Failure

Renal failure result in accumulation of nitrogenous waste in the body it is reversible in acute renal failure and irreversible deterioration of renal function leading to progressive destruction of nephrons in chronic renal failure (CRF). There is uremia, hyponatremia, hypertension and fluid retention in CRF causes direct and indirect effect on the inner ear including audiovestibular apparatus. ...
