Brain stem auditory evoked responses (BAER) can be recorded from scalp electrodes at 0 to 10 msec (early), 10 to 50 msec (middle), and 50 to 500 msec (late) following a click stimulus. The early potentials reflect electrical activity at the cochlea, eighth cranial nerve, and brain stem; the later potentials reflect cortical activity. 1, record 1, English, - brainstem%20auditory%20evoked%20responses

Examen de l'audition [...] En général, le nouveau-né répond à une stimulation de 60 décibels. S'il ne répond pas, on augmente l'intensité et tout enfant ne répondant pas à 90 dB doit être considéré comme suspect. Si la suspicion se confirme à un nouvel examen, il sera adressé à un spécialiste. Des méthodes électrophysiologiques objectives telles que les potentiels évoqués auditifs du tronc cérébral peuvent être alors réalisées. 1, record 1, French, - potentiels%20%C3%A9voqu%C3%A9s%20auditifs%20du%20tronc%20c%C3%A9r%C3%A9bral
