Abstract

The chained stimuli ABR method, which allows acquisition of data for a seven-point latency-intensity function for both ears in approximately 35 min, is described. Testing of 22 ears with a simulated conductive loss, and 20 ears with sensorineural impairment, indicates that the chained stimuli method provides equivalent threshold estimates to that obtained with the conventional ABR measurement technique.
