ABSTRACT

Abstract Introduction Electrically evoked auditory brainstem responses provide reliable clinical information to assist professionals in the auditory rehabilitation of cochlear implant users. Objective This study aimed to investigate intraoperative evoked auditory brainstem response recordings in Evo®-cochlear implant electrode array recipients and its correlation with their behavioral levels and auditory performance. Methods This is a retrospectivey study. Intraoperative evoked auditory brainstem responses were recorded in adult Evo®-cochlear implant electrode array recipients. Wave V latencies, amplitudes and interpeak III-V intervals were recorded in three different electrode locations and compared to the sentence recognition scores obtained from subjects after six months of device use. Evoked auditory brainstem responses thresholds were also recorded and compared to the behaviorally determined levels of the subjects in the sound processor activation. Results Evoked auditory brainstem responses thresholds were significantly correlated with both, behavioral T- and C-levels and they were recorded at audible electrical stimulation levels in all subjects. There was a significant correlation between interpeak III-V interval recorded in the apical electrode and sentence recognition scores of the subjects. Conclusions Intraoperative evoked auditory brainstem responses can be used to establish audible levels for fitting the sound processor in Evo®-cochlear implant recipients and it could help professionals to plan further actions aiming to improve their auditory performance.


Resumo Introdução Os potenciais auditivos de tronco encefálico evocados eletricamente fornecem informações clínicas confiáveis que auxiliam no processo de reabilitação auditiva de usuários de implante coclear. Objetivo Investigar o registro intraoperatório dos potenciais auditivos de tronco encefálico evocados eletricamente em usuários do feixe de eletrodos Evo® e sua correlação com os níveis comportamentais e desempenho auditivo dos indivíduos. Método Estudo retrospectivo. Os potenciais auditivos de tronco encefálico intraoperatórios foram registrados em usuários adultos de implante coclear com feixe de eletrodos Evo®. As latências e amplitudes da onda V e os intervalos interpico III-V foram registrados em três diferentes eletrodos e comparados às pontuações de reconhecimento de sentenças após 6 meses de uso do implante coclear. Os limiares dos eABRs foram comparados aos níveis comportamentais dos indivíduos na ativação do processador de som. Resultados Os limiares do eABR foram significativamente correlacionados aos níveis comportamentais T e C e registrados em níveis de estimulação elétrica audíveis em todos os indivíduos. Houve uma correlação significativa entre o intervalo interpico III-V no eletrodo apical e a pontuação de reconhecimento de sentenças dos indivíduos. Conclusões O eABR intraoperatório pode ser usado para estabelecer níveis audíveis de estimulação elétrica na ativação do processador sonoro em usuários de implante coclear‐Evo® e pode auxiliar os profissionais no planejamento de ações visando melhorar o desempenho auditivo nesses pacientes.

ABSTRACT

Abstract Introduction Mismatch Negativity (MMN) corresponds to a response of the central auditory nervous system. Objective The objective of this study is to analyze MMN latencies and amplitudes in normal-hearing adults and compare the results between ears, gender and hand dominance. Methods This is a cross-sectional study. Forty subjects participated, 20 women and 20 men, aged 18 to 29 years and having normal auditory thresholds. A frequency of 1000Hz (standard stimuli) and 2000Hz (deviant stimuli) was used to evoked the MMN. Results Mean latencies in the right ear were 169.4ms and 175.3ms in the left ear, with mean amplitudes of 4.6μV in the right ear and 4.2μV in the left ear. There was no statistically significant difference between ears. The comparison of latencies between genders showed a statistically significant difference for the right ear, being higher in the men than in women. There was no significant statistical difference between ears for both right-handed and left-handed group. However, the results indicated that the latency of the right ear was significantly higher for the left handers than the right handers. We also found a significant result for the latency of the left ear, which was higher for the right handers. Conclusion It was possible to obtain references of values for the MMN. There are no differences in the MMN latencies and amplitudes between the ears. Regarding gender, the male group presented higher latencies in relation to the female group in the right ear. Some results indicate that there is a significant statistical difference of the MMN between right- and left-handed individuals.

ABSTRACT

Objetivo: analisar, de forma comparativa, a influência do transdutor no registro dos componentes P1, N1 e P2 eliciados por estímulo de fala, quanto à latência e à amplitude, em crianças ouvintes. Método: 30 crianças ouvintes de quatro a 12 anos de idade, de ambos os sexos. Os potenciais evocados auditivos de longa latência foram pesquisados por meio dos transdutores, fone de inserção e caixa acústica, eliciados por estímulo de fala /da/, sendo o intervalo interestímulos de 526ms, a intensidade de 70dBNA e a taxa de apresentação de 1,9 estímulos por segundo. Foram analisados os componentes P1, N1 e P2 quando presentes, quanto à latência e à amplitude. Resultados: constatou-se um nível de concordância forte entre a pesquisadora e o juiz. Não houve diferença estatisticamente significante ao comparar os valores de latência e amplitude dos componentes P1, N1 e P2, ao considerar sexo e orelha, assim como para a latência dos componentes quando analisado os tipos de transdutores. Entretanto, houve diferença estatisticamente significante para a amplitude dos componentes P1 e N1, com maior amplitude para o transdutor caixa acústica. Conclusão: os valores de latência dos componentes P1, N1 e P2 e amplitude de P2 obtidos com fone de inserção podem ser utilizados como referência de normalidade independente do transdutor utilizado para a pesquisa dos potenciais evocados auditivos de longa latência. .


Purpose: to analyze, in a comparative manner, the influence of the transducer on the recordings of P1, N1 and P2components elicited through speech stimulus, as to the latency and amplitude in hearing children. Method: the sample was comprised of 30 hearing children aged 4-12 yrs, both genders. The long latency auditory evoked potentials were researched by means of transducers, insertion phone and speakers, elicited through speech stimulus /da/ presented with interstimuli interval of 526ms, the intensity of 70dBNA and presentation rate of 1.9 stimuli per second. Whenever present, P1, N1 and P2 components were analyzed as to latency and amplitude. Results: it was found a strong level of agreement between the researcher and the judge. There was no statistically significant difference when comparing the values of latency and amplitude of the P1, N1 and P2 components, when considering gender and ear, as well as the latency of components when considering the types of transducers. However, there was a statistically significant difference for the amplitude of the P1 and N1 components with greater amplitude for the speaker transducer. Conclusion: the latency values of the P1, N1 and P2 components and P2 amplitude obtained with insertion phone may be used as normal reference independent of the transducer used for the recording of auditory evoked potentials of long latency. .
