Evaluation of inner ear damage during conditions with middle ear effusion by use of brainstem audiometry. 1985

S Hellström, and J Hörnsten, and L E Stenfors

The method of auditory evoked brainstem responses (AEBR) was applied on an animal model with two types of well defined middle ear effusions--serous otitis media (SOM) and purulent otitis media (POM). The animals with SOM exhibited fairly normal interpeak latencies but a considerably increased auditory threshold. In contrast, POM mainly affected the latencies of the brainstem evoked potential but also caused a slight increase of the auditory threshold. The results indicate that SOM chiefly causes a conductive hearing loss, while POM also affects the neural circuit.

D006314 Hearing Loss, Conductive Hearing loss due to interference with the mechanical reception or amplification of sound to the COCHLEA. The interference is in the outer or middle ear involving the EAR CANAL; TYMPANIC MEMBRANE; or EAR OSSICLES. Conductive Hearing Loss
D006319 Hearing Loss, Sensorineural Hearing loss resulting from damage to the COCHLEA and the sensorineural elements which lie internally beyond the oval and round windows. These elements include the AUDITORY NERVE and its connections in the BRAINSTEM.

D000818 Animals Unicellular or multicellular, heterotrophic organisms, that have sensation and the power of voluntary movement. Under the older five kingdom paradigm, Animalia was one of the kingdoms. Under the modern three domain model, Animalia represents one of the many groups in the domain EUKARYOTA.

D001300 Audiometry, Evoked Response A form of electrophysiologic audiometry in which an analog computer is included in the circuit to average out ongoing or spontaneous brain wave activity. A characteristic pattern of response to a sound stimulus may then become evident. Evoked response audiometry is known also as electric response audiometry.
