An invaluable, "hands-on" practical guide to understanding the base for and applications of ABR. Describes clearly measurement techniques, instrumentation, stimulus parameters, recording parameters and subject variables that can affect the responses. Discusses clinical applications of the auditory brainstem response in neurological evaluation. Includes many case studies to highlight the principles and techniques covered in the manual. Discusses applications of the ABR in newborn hearing screening and intraoperative monitoring. TEXTBOOK
