Prolongation of the cochlear microphonic in man. Cochlear microphonic ringing. 1983

K P Gibbin, and S M Mason, and S E Kent

During routine extra-tympanic electrocochleographic (ECochG) recording we have observed that in many cases more cycles are seen in the cochlear microphonic (CM) recording than are present in the acoustic stimulus. We have termed this phenomenon CM 'ringing'. Ringing is present in 69% of our normal subjects and in 43% of patients with deafness of different aetiologies. In the cochlear and Ménière subgroups those cases showing ringing have a significantly larger CM amplitude (p less than 0.001 and p less than 0.01 respectively). The possible origin of this phenomenon is discussed.

D003051 Cochlea The part of the inner ear (LABYRINTH) that is concerned with hearing. It forms the anterior part of the labyrinth, as a snail-like structure that is situated almost horizontally anterior to the VESTIBULAR LABYRINTH. Cochleas

D001299 Audiometry The testing of the acuity of the sense of hearing to determine the thresholds of the lowest intensity levels at which an individual can hear a set of tones. The frequencies between 125 and 8000 Hz are used to test air conduction thresholds and the frequencies between 250 and 4000 Hz are used to test bone conduction thresholds. Audiometries
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.
