  • Title: [Brainstem auditory evoked response (BER) in paedaudiological diagnosis (author's transl)].
    Author: von Deuster C, Seiler CF.
    Journal: Laryngol Rhinol Otol (Stuttg); 1979 Jan; 58(1):43-7. PubMed ID: 763051.
    Abstract:
    Intention of paedaudiology is to detect and to evaluate hearing loss in children. In new born and small infants, in children with behavioral disorders and multiple disabilities, the clinical techniques of audiometry are often not useful. The brainstem audiometry is a reliable alternative and not so cost intensive and time consuming as it is often assumed. Encouraging is this technique in regard of hearing aids: prevention of attaching unnecessary hearing aids, ruling out not appropriate fitted hearing aids and proper habilitation of unilateral hearing loss.
