Update on frequency specificity of AEP measurements.
Auditory evoked potentials acquired with frequency-specific stimuli are useful in estimating hearing sensitivity in difficult-to-test patients. Stimulus characteristics, test methods, strengths, and limitations of the auditory brainstem response, SN10 response, middle latency response, and 40-Hz response are reviewed. Clinical strategies using frequency-specific stimuli are suggested for the evaluation of children and adults.
