Title: A comparison between auditory steady-state responses and pure tone threshold in adults with sensorineural hearing loss
Abstract: OBJECTIVE To determine the relationship between the threshold of auditory steady-state responses(ASSR)and pure tone of adults with sensorineural hearing loss.METHODS Adults with different degrees of sensorineural hearing loss from out-patient clinic of the first hospital of China medical university were tested with ASSR and pure tone audiometry,the correlations and differences between the thresholds of ASSR and pure tone audiometry at 0.5、1、 2 and 4 kHz were analyzed.RESULTS The correlation coefficient of two methods at 0.5、1、2、4 kHz were 0.840、0.905、0.886、0.924,As hearing loss increased,the differences of the two methods gradually reduced.CONCLUSION The thresholds of ASSR correlate well with that of pure tone audiometry.ASSR is proved to be a good and objective tool for adults with sensorineural hearing loss.
