Distortion product otoacoustic emissions in tinnitus patients.
Tinnitus is a symptom that affects a great number of patients. Its diagnosis, treatment, and follow-up are difficult, owing to its subjectivity. The authors propose the use of distortion product otoacoustic emissions (DPOAEs) in tinnitus evaluation. They studied three groups: controls, having no complaint of tinnitus and normal hearing; group 1, presenting tinnitus and normal audiometry; and gr...
متن کاملDo "optimal" conditions improve distortion product otoacoustic emission test performance?
OBJECTIVES To determine whether an "optimal" distortion product otoacoustic emission (DPOAE) protocol that (1) used optimal stimulus levels and primary-frequency ratios for each f2, (2) simultaneously measured 2f2 - f1 and 2f1 - f2 distortion products, (3) controlled source contribution, (4) implemented improved calibration techniques, (5) accounted for the influence of middle ear reflectance, ...
متن کاملDistortion-product otoacoustic emission test performance for ototoxicity monitoring.
INTRODUCTION A nonbehavioral method for monitoring ototoxicity in patients treated with cisplatin is needed because patients enduring chemotherapy may not be well or cooperative enough to undergo repeated hearing tests. Distortion-product otoacoustic emissions (DPOAEs) provide a nonbehavioral measure of auditory function that is sensitive to cisplatin exposure. However, interpreting DPOAE findi...
متن کاملCochlear nonlinearity in normal-hearing subjects as inferred psychophysically and from distortion-product otoacoustic emissions.
The aim was to investigate the correlation between compression exponent, compression threshold, and cochlear gain for normal-hearing subjects as inferred from temporal masking curves (TMCs) and distortion-product otoacoustic emission (DPOAEs) input-output (I/O) curves. Care was given to reduce the influence of DPOAE fine structure on the DPOAE I/O curves. A high correlation between compression ...
