Brainstem

The purpose of this work was to evaluate if a stimulus reptition rate that is higher than 30 clicks/sec increases the sensitivity of the absolute latencies of waves I, III and V and interpeak intervals I-III, III-V and I-V in the Auditory Brainstem Responses.(ABR) of Multiple Sclerosis (MS) patients.

The aim of this study was to elaborate an algorithm of the detection of brainstem lesion according BAEP changes. The following questions were raised for this purpose: 1) which interpretation strategy of BAEP changes selects the most patients with brainstem lesions? 2) which BAEP abnormalities differentiate between mass lesions of posterior fossa and demyelinating encephalomyelitis?
