A Comprehensive Overview of Auditory Brainstem Responses (ABR)
A Comprehensive Overview of Auditory Brainstem Responses (ABR)
As of today, Auditory Brainstem Responses (ABR) represents the most clinically used procedure to assess the functionality of the auditory system, from the periphery to the brainstem.
Explore the comprehensive world of ABR in our upcoming webinar, presented by Dr. Stavros Hatzopoulos.
This session also marks an exciting step toward the launch of Celesta, our brand-new diagnostic device for auditory evoked potentials and vestibular evoked myogenic potentials.
Elevate your clinical expertise with essential ABR insights!
Key Points of the Webinar:
- Historical Overview: Learn about the evolution of ABR, anatomy, and waveform terminology.
- Technical Parameters: Understand stimulus settings, acquisition methods, and key testing protocols.
- Response Analysis: Dive into conventional and abnormal ABR patterns, subject factors, and the impact of medication on ABR morphology.
- Clinical Applications: Explore real-world uses of ABR in hearing screening, diagnostics, and surgical monitoring.
