Comparing auditory steady state response and auditory brainstem response in normal hearing adults

This paper presents a study examining auditory steady state response (ASSR) assessments compared to auditory brainstem response (ABR) assessments. The study examines the relationship between behavioral thresholds, click- and toneburst-ABR thresholds, and ASSR thresholds for normal hearing subjects using the commercially available GSI Audera instrument.

Validation of an automated algorithm for auditory brainstem response testing

This paper discusses the auditory brainstem response (ABR) testing for infants.

Parental response to newborn hearing screening

This paper investigates parental response to the results of screening programs mandated by Universal Newborn Hearing Screening (UHHS), a Missouri law requiring hearing screenings of all newborns that went into effect January 1, 2002.

Parental response to Universal Newborn Hearing Screening

This paper describes parental response to Universal Newborn Hearing Screening (UNHS).

Habituation of the immobility response of guinea pigs to auditory stimuli

This paper discusses the development of a method to measure the habituation of the immobility response of guinea pigs.

Auditory brainstem response with alternative transducers: implications for newborn hearing screening

This paper studies the efficacy of a bone-conducted transducer compared to a traditional air conduction transducer for auditory brainstem response screening of newborns.

Variables that influence the real-ear response of the TDH-49 earphone

This paper discusses a study performed to determine whether anatomical features of the outer ear affect the sound stimulus delivered by earphone to the tympanic membrane.

Comparing auditory steady-state response and auditory brainstem response in normal hearing adults

This paper compares the auditory steady state response (ASSR) thresholds with the click-evoked and tone burst auditory brainstem response (ABR) thresholds in their ability to predict known behavioral thresholds in normal-hearing adults.

Effect of unilateral hearing loss on the speech-evoked auditory brainstem response in the presence of noise

Speech-evoked auditory brainstem responses (ABRs) were acquired in quiet and in the presence of noise at two study sessions to investigate 1) test-retest variability and 2) subcortical representation of speech stimuli. Participants were adults with normal hearing in both ears who listened monaurally and adults with unilateral deafness. Results indicate consistency in responses across sessions and several differences between hearing groups for magnitudes of discrete components.

Difference between default telecoil and programmed microphone frequency response in behind-the-ear hearing aids

The notion that the default telecoil (t-coil) frequency response should match the programmed microphone frequency response to provide optimal telephone understanding for hearing aid patients has received little attention. This study addresses differences in the average frequency response of the two transducers in behind-the-ear (BTE) hearing aids.
