    Graph showing a typical Auditory Brainstem Response. The auditory brainstem response (ABR), also called brainstem evoked response audiometry (BERA) or brainstem auditory evoked potentials (BAEPs) or brainstem auditory evoked responses (BAERs) [1] [2] is an auditory evoked potential extracted from ongoing electrical activity in the brain and recorded via electrodes placed on the scalp.

  3. Auditory neuropathy spectrum disorder - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Auditory_Neuropathy...

    Auditory neuropathy spectrum disorder (ANSD) is a specific form of hearing loss defined by the presence of normal or near-normal otoacoustic emissions (OAEs) but the absence of normal middle ear reflexes and severely abnormal or completely absent auditory brainstem response (ABRs).

  4. Bone conduction auditory brainstem response - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bone_conduction_auditory...

    With Bone ABR, the waves are typically more rounded that with traditional auditory brainstem response. The maximum output for bone is around 50 dB nHL and should look similar to the 50 dB HL response of air conduction for people with normal hearing or with a mild SNHL. With conductive hearing losses, the latencies for air are shifted when ...

  7. Auditory neuropathy - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Auditory_neuropathy

    An ABR (auditory brainstem response) is required to assess that the sound is successfully transmitted through the nerve to the brain. In most parts of Australia, hearing screening via ABR testing is mandated, meaning that essentially all congenital (i.e., not those related to later onset degenerative disorders) auditory neuropathy cases should ...

  8. Cerebellopontine angle syndrome - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cerebellopontine_angle...

    The auditory brainstem response (ABR) test gives information about the inner ear (cochlea) and nerve pathways for hearing via ongoing electrical activity in the brain measured by electrodes placed on the scalp. Five different waves (I to V) are measured for each ear.

  9. Pure-tone audiometry - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pure-tone_audiometry

    However, there are benefits to using pure-tone audiometry over other forms of hearing test, such as click auditory brainstem response (ABR). [3] Pure-tone audiometry provides ear specific thresholds, and uses frequency specific pure tones to give place specific responses, so that the configuration of a hearing loss can be identified.
