  • Title: Auditory brainstem response artefact caused by caloric testing.
    Author: Gimsing S.
    Journal: Br J Audiol; 1987 Nov; 21(4):301-2. PubMed ID: 3690069.
    Abstract:
    In the external ear canal, residual water from caloric testing or any other irrigation may act to simulate a conductive hearing loss and interfere with subsequent auditory brainstem response recording leading to increased latencies and reduced amplitudes. This artefact in the ABR may be mistaken for a retrocochlear lesion.
