Abstract:
Spontaneous otoacoustic emissions (SOAEs) are narrowband continuous signals that can be recorded from the ear canals of humans in the absence of external stimulation. SOAEs have been detected in 30 to 50% of individuals whose hearing is within normal limits. They are believed to originate in the cochlea but the mechanism by which they are produced remains unknown. It has not been determined if SOAEs are an indication of subtle abnormality in the cochlea or if they are the result of an auditory system that is functioning normally. Most investigators agree, however, that an active source of ener

Abstract:
Cortical auditory evoked potentials (CAEPs) are a non-invasive tool that can provide objective information on the functioning of the auditory pathways. As a result, there is increasing use of these measurements to support the early implantation of cochlear implants in children. However, the maturation of CAEPs in children who have received cochlear implants is still not well understood. This study investigated five children who received cochlear implants prior to 3.5 years of age and compared their CAEP waveforms to five normal-hearing children who were matched for age and five normal-hearing

This study compared pure tone thresholds and distortion product otoacoustic emissions (DPOAEs) in this high frequency range for 29 normal hearing subjects ages 18-30.

Some tinnitus patients have normal hearing on the conventional audiogram. It has been suggested that the presence of a limited area of damaged outer hair cells (OHCs) with intact inner hair cells, which is not detected on the audiogram, results in unbalanced neural activity between Type I and Type II fibers leading to tinnitus. Distortion product otoacoustic emissions (DPOAEs) provided ambiguous data of OHC function in normal-hearing tinnitus patients when compared to non-tinnitus controls.
