title: [Auditory evoked potentials in alcoholics].
abstract: In this paper, auditory brain stem potentials in the group of 26 alcoholics were studied and a significantly delayed latencies of the peaks II through V as compared to the healthy control subjects were found. In addition, a statistically significant prolongation of brain stem transmission time (BTT) in alcoholics was observed. The study also suggests the possibility of monitoring the level of pathohistological changes of the central auditory pathway caused by excessive alcohol consumption.
