Frequency specificity of brainstem evoked responses in man

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 ...

Brainstem reflexes and brainstem auditory evoked responses in Huntington's chorea.

Blink reflex, corneal reflex, jaw reflex, exteroceptive suppression in masseter muscles and brainstem auditory evoked potentials were measured in 20 patients with Huntington's chorea and 12 controls. A significantly increased latency of the second component of the homolateral and heterolateral blink reflex was found in the patient group as compared with the controls. The other investigations re...

Brainstem 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.

Low-frequency versus high-frequency synchronisation in chirp-evoked auditory brainstem responses

Evaluation of brainstem stroke using brainstem auditory evoked responses.

Brainstem stroke syndromes are primarily determined by clinical criteria. There are few diagnostic procedures which are of benefit for the evaluation of brainstem ischemic events. Brainstem auditory evoked responses (BAERs) are a new electrophysiologic technique for assessing brainstem function. To evaluate the use of BAERs in patients with brainstem ischemic events, 35 individuals with recent ...
