Introduction: Meniere’s disease (MD) is a disease of the inner ear that presents itself with repeated episodes of vertigo (96.2%), tinnitus (91.1%), and sensorineural hearing loss (87.7 %). In this article we sought to assess the effects of intratympanic (IT) injections of dexamethasone on definite cases of MD using electrocochleography (ECOG). Materials and Methods: In this hospital-based case...

Abstract Background Vertigo and dizziness are frequent clinical symptoms. Peripheral vertigo central two different types of that result from a disrupted vestibular system. Imbalance initial complaints. It is common for improper diagnosis subpar treatment to lack systematic approach the examination laboratory evaluation A correct can be made with fundamental knowledge physiology right methods. O...

Low-frequency otoacoustic emissions (OAEs) are often concealed by acoustic background noise such as those from a patient's breathing and from the environment during recording in clinics. When using electrocochleaography (ECochG or ECoG), such as cochlear microphonics (CMs), acoustic background noise do not contaminate the recordings. Our objective is to study the response pattern of CM waveform...

Some patients suffer hearing loss in the early postoperative period following vestibular schwannoma excision despite having intact hearing immediately after surgery. As this phenomenon has rarely been documented or described, the putative mechanism remains vague. The objective of the current study was to document the patterns of change in behavioural and electrophysiological responses in patien...

During electrocochleography, that is, ECochG or ECoG, a recording electrode can be placed in the ear canal lateral to the tympanic membrane. We designed a concha electrode to record both sinusoidal waveforms of cochlear microphonics (CMs) and auditory brainstem responses (ABRs). The amplitudes of CM waveforms and Wave I or compound action potentials (CAPs) recorded at the concha were greater th...

INTRODUCTION Residual inhibition (RI) is the temporary inhibition of tinnitus by use of masking stimuli when the device is turned off. OBJECTIVE The main aim of this study was to evaluate the effects of RI induced by auditory electrical stimulation (AES) in the primary auditory pathways using early auditory-evoked potentials (AEPs) in subjective idiopathic tinnitus (SIT) subjects.
