Table of contents What is the auditory brainstem response (ABR)? ABR results interpretation Patient preparation Testing considerations Checking the electrode impedances Performing a threshold ABR tes…
When I first graduated as a Master of Science in Audiology in 2020, I started as an Audiologist at the University Hospital in Odense, Denmark. Here, I used the Interacoustics Eclipse almost every day…
What is a cochlear microphonic? The cochlear microphonic is a response from the cochlea that mimics the input stimulus and is believed to be a response primarily from the outer hair cells (Dallos, 19…
This video tutorial provides some tips, tricks, suggestions and ideas for how and when to apply masking noise to the bone conduction ABR. You can read the full transcript below. Introduction This vid…

Answer: This is a fascinating question which has occupied the audiological community for some time now, because in theory both techniques arise from the same neural generators but in practice there h…
I wanted to know whether the Eclipse can be used to do ABRs on children that are not sedated (e.g. a 4-year old looking at an iPad). Is sedation essential with children when using the Eclipse? Answer…
Both of these auditory evoked potentials responses arise from generators in the thalamo-cortical region of the central auditory system and so you would associate them with objectively assessing thres…

In evoked potential testing, there are various ways to measure residual noise. But which one should you use? The fully objective and perhaps easiest method is to use the automated residual noise calc…
This video demontrates a live recording of the cervical VEMP, and the identification of the biphasic response, and the marking of the waveform. You can read the full transcript below. Applying the tr…
