OBJECTIVE Our goal was to determine the cost-effectiveness of including auditory brainstem response (ABR) testing in a screening protocol for the diagnosis of vestibular schwannoma (VS) in patients with asymmetric auditory symptoms at the Christian Medical College and Hospital, Vellore, India, where, commonly, patients with VS have tumors greater than 2 cm at the time of diagnosis. METHODS Ni...

abstract:background : hyperbilirubinemia is one of the most common cause of congenital sensory neuronal hearing loss. these patients are screened by auditory brainstem response (abr) test at bilirubin levels higher than 1% of gestational weight. aim: to determine whether hyperbilirubinemia less than 1% of gestational weight could induce hearing loss and abnormal auditory brainstem response (abr...

In an ad-hoc mobile network where mobile hosts (MHs) are acting as routers and where routes are made inconsistent by MHs‘ movement. In associativity-based routing protocol (ABR) where a route is selected based on nodes having associativity states that imply periods of stability. In this manner, the routes selected are likely to be long-lived and provides maximum throughput. In this paper we cre...

Considering the high-speed data transfer by the ABR service class in a wireless ATM network, we investigate the impact of forward and backward hard handover protocols on the performance of the three rate-based ABR flow-control schemes Explicit Rate Indication for Congestion Avoidance (ERICA+), Fuzzy Explicit Rate Marking (FERM) and a new promising adaptation of FERM, called FERMA. We evaluate t...

Auditory brain-stem responses (ABRs) were studied in 66 subjects with severe head trauma. Middle latency responses (MLRs) were also recorded in 22 of them. Patients were carefully selected to avoid conditions such as pre-existing or acute deafness, hypothermia or ethanol intoxication. In order to evaluate the usefulness of potentials in predicting recovery, patients were classified according to...

OBJECTIVES To examine the relationship between speech intelligibilities among the similar level of hearing loss and threshold elevation of the auditory brainstem response (ABR). METHODS The relationship between maximum speech intelligibilities among similar levels of hearing loss and relative threshold elevation of the click-evoked ABR (ABR threshold - pure tone average at 2,000 and 4,000 Hz)...

Background: Central auditory processing disorders (CAPDs) tend to affect an individual’s ability understand speech, especially in difficult listening conditions.Objective: To study speech-in-noise (SIN) cases of central subjectively by Arabic Hearing Noise Test (A-HINT) and objectively Speech-evoked brainstem response (S-ABR) with ipsilateral noise.Patients Methods: Subjects included this will ...
