Vestibular Function Modulates the Benefit of Hearing Aids in People With Hearing Loss During Static Postural Control.

abstract：:Ipsilaterally and contralaterally recorded auditory brain stem responses to 80 dB nHL clicks were recorded from 37 infants, aged 2 weeks to 20 mo and from six adults, all with normal auditory function. With increasing age, contralateral waves A, B, C, and D and ipsilateral waves III and V decreased in latency, with th...
