title: Interpreting ear differences in static compliance measurements.
abstract: The value of static compliance measurements is limited by marked variability and considerable overlap of results among normal and abnormal middle ears. However, a procedure that compares static compliance measurements between the right and left ear of each individual overcomes this problem in large part. The methods and data to support the applicability of this approach for evaluating unilateral middle ear disorders are discussed further.
