On the Etiology of Listening Difficulties in Noise Despite Clinically Normal Audiograms.

abstract：OBJECTIVE:To evaluate the effect of artifacts on the impulse and response recordings with the video head impulse test (VHIT) and determine how many stimuli are necessary for obtaining acceptably efficient measurements. METHODS:One hundred fifty patients were examined using VHIT and their registries searched for artifa...

abstract：:The auditory steady state potentials may be an important technique in objective audiometry. The effects of stimulus rate, intensity, and tonal frequency on these potentials were investigated using both signal averaging and on-line Fourier analysis.
