Objectives: The result of auditory brainstem response is used worldwide for detecting hearing impairments or hearing aids. This study aimed to introduce the superiority of mathematical innovation algorithm toward subjective evaluation by an audiologist. The automatic algorithm method is encouraged for detecting the waves of Auditory Brainstem Response (ABR), because it can reduce subjective eva...

INTRODUCTION Neural encoding of speech begins with the analysis of the signal as a whole broken down into its sinusoidal components in the cochlea, which has to be conserved up to the higher auditory centers. Some of these components target the dead regions of the cochlea causing little or no excitation. Measuring aided speech-evoked auditory brainstem response elicited by speech stimuli with d...

Background:Post meningitis hearing impairment is an important public health problem. Neonatal cause of mortality and morbidity in neonates future life. An consequence loss. Hearing plays a basic role language, speech intellectual development. Late detection causes irreversible stunting the language development potential child. Early intervention would help to maximize linguistic competence lite...

The technique that we use for eliciting brainstem auditory evoked responses (BAERs) is described. BAERs are a non-invasive and reliable clinical test when carefully performed. This test is indicated in the evaluation of disorders which may potentially involve the brainstem such as coma, multiple sclerosis, posterior fossa tumors and others. Unsuspected lesions with normal radiologic studies (in...

background and aim: neonatal jaundice is one of the common causes of early sensori­neural hearing loss and an important cause of deafness in children. auditory responses are the most sensitive parts of the nervous system to the toxic effect of bilirubin. this study was aimed to examine the effect of neonatal hyperbili­rubinemia and its treatment on auditory brain­stem responses (abr). methods: ...
