[Preliminary results of otoacoustic emission measurement and standard values in young subjects with normal hearing. Part I: Measurement of spontaneous and click-evoked otoacoustic emissions (SOAE, EOAE)].
The paper reports results of measurement of spontaneous and click-evoked otoacoustic emissions in 44 subjects (male and female) with normal hearing capacity confirmed by tonal audiometry. Otoacoustic responses were recorded separately for each ear. Altogether 176 measurements were made; their results being subject to detailed quantitative and qualitative analysis. Then mean EOAE values were calculated as the function of frequency and intensity of the stimulating agent. The statistical analysis of results revealed insignificant differences in EOAE values in males and females and in responses from the right and left ear. The results should be regarded as a statistical probability of the standard in view of the significant differences between individual recordings of otoacoustic emissions. It is anticipated that EOAE measurements will be useful for identifying frequency range of normal hearing in healthy ears and in cases of pathology.
