  • Title: A slow wave auditory brainstem response to clicks in a case of high frequency hearing loss.
    Author: Weston PF, Manson JI.
    Journal: Br J Audiol; 1985 Nov; 19(4):243-9. PubMed ID: 4074976.
    Abstract:
    A slow component of the auditory brainstem response (BSER) to broad band clicks was revealed in a case of high frequency hearing loss. The latency, morphology, and threshold level characteristics of the response resembled those for the slow wave response (SWR) to 500 Hz tone pips. The SWR to clicks appeared to be initiated by the cochlear partition below 2 kHz and was unmasked by a hearing loss at 2 kHz and above. With click stimuli at intensities above the 2 kHz hearing thresholds, wave V dominated the response to clicks, thus supporting the evidence that wave V is initiated from the high frequency region of the cochlear partition. Caution is advised in interpreting threshold studies using click BSERs, as the SWR may be mistaken for a delayed wave V.
