Otoacoustic Emissions in Sudden Sensorineural Hearing Loss: Changes of Measures with Treatment
نویسنده
چکیده
Results: In TEOAEs, the mean overall correlation (reproducibility) and the mean overall strength in involved ears were 10.96±23.36 and 0.99±3.45 dB, respectively, before the treatment, which reached 22.88±36.55 and 1.85±5.3, respectively, after the treatment (P>0.05). Significant difference between “correlation score” (average of correlations at 3-4 involved frequencies) before and after treatment was found: 6.52 ±18.19 vs. 21.67±37.8 (P<0.034). The difference between preand post-treatmentoverall correlation and correlation score in the “response group” were significant (P<0.031). In DPOAEs of the involved ears, the mean DP1 level and the DP1 signal-to-noiseratio changes were not significant with the treatment (P>0.05).
