The auditory steady-state response: clinical observations and applications in infants and children.

Effect of Mild Cognitive Impairment and Alzheimer Disease on Auditory Steady-State Responses

Introduction: Mild Cognitive Impairment (MCI), a disorder of the elderly people, is difficult to diagnose and often progresses to Alzheimer Disease (AD). Temporal region is one of the initial areas, which gets impaired in the early stage of AD. Therefore, auditory cortical evoked potential could be a valuable neuromarker for detecting MCI and AD.  Methods: In this study, the thresholds of...

Assessment of the Prevalence of Hearing Impairment in Neonates Born in Imam Reza, Ghaem and OM-Albanin Hospitals of Mashhad

Introduction: The prevalence of hearing loss in neonates is 2-5 out of every 1,000 live births. Global Health Committee, American Academy of Otolaryngology, and American Academy of Pediatrics have recommended that hearing loss in infants be identified, and treated when possible, prior to 6 months of age. This study was designed with the aim to screen the hearing of neonates in Mashhad, Iran. Me...

Clinical Application of Auditory Evoked Potentials in Infants: Comparing the Auditory Brainstem Response and Auditory Steady State Response

معادلات برآورد تعمیم یافته و کاربرد آن در تحلیل داده های کولیک شیرخوارگی

Introdiuction and objective: Many Studies about Epidemiology and medical sciences that measured desired outcome at frequently individuals over times are done based on a longitudinal design. the features of a data set is repeated observes . For this reason , requirement of independence observation in longitudinal data is violated that causes this kind of data needs the specific statistical metho...

Evaluation of the Slope of Amplitude Growth Function Changes of the Electrically Evoked Action Potential in Three Months after Receiving the Device in Children with Cochlear Implant

Objective: In neural response telemetry, intracochlear electrodes stimulate the auditory nerve and record the neural responses. The electrical stimulation is sent to the auditory nerve by an electrode and the resulted response, called electrically evoked compound action potential, is recorded by an adjacent electrode. The most important clinical applications of this test are evaluation and moni...
