ABR obtained from time-efficient train stimuli for cisplatin ototoxicity monitoring. [PDF]

open access: yesJ Am Acad Audiol, 2013
Background:Nonbehavioral methods for identifying cisplatin ototoxicity are important for testing patients with cancer who become too tired or sick to provide a reliable response. The auditory brainstem response (ABR) is a nonbehavioral test that is sensitive to ototoxicity but can be time consuming to implement over a range of frequencies and/or ...

Evoked otoacoustic emissions — an approach for monitoring cisplatin induced ototoxicity in children

open access: yesInternational Journal of Pediatric Otorhinolaryngology, 2001
Cisplatin chemotherapy is associated with an increased risk of ototoxic changes. The incidence of hearing loss after the 1st cisplatin-infusion session is only scarcely mentioned in the international literature. With increasing survival rates, prevention and/or early detection of ototoxicity are important for providing management options.
