Abstract

ABR evaluations were completed for 36 adults (18 males, 18 females) having normal hearing sensitivity and for 91 adult patients having various degrees of sensorineural hearing loss. Amplitudes of waves I and V were compared for ear canal (TIPtrode) electrode and mastoid electrode recordings. Interpeak intervals (I-III, III-V, and I-V) were determined and upper 95% confidence limits defined for normative data. In general, amplitude of wave I was larger when TIPtrodes were used. Wave V amplitude was nearly identical for the two electrodes. Wave I was identified more frequently for TIPtrode than for mastoid recordings of ABR waveforms for the sensorineural hearing loss subjects.
