Tympanogram:
• A plot of middle ear admittance as a function of ear canal pressure
• Pressure is swept from +200 to -200 or -400 dPa
• Should see peak at point where pressures are equal
![Page 4: Objective Tests of the Auditory System SPA 4302 Summer A, 2004.](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022081603/5697c0231a28abf838cd3ea0/html5/thumbnails/4.jpg)
Tympanogram types:
• A: peak between +100 and -200 dPa: normal
• C: peak beyond -200 dPa: neg pressure
• B: no peak flat tymp: effusion
• As: peak but shallow: stiff: otosclerosis
• Ad: peak off scale: floppy: dysarticulation

Tympanogram Types

Static Admittance
• A measure of the height of tympanogram peak
Adults 3-10 yrsA 0.30 to 1.70 0.25 to 1.05As < 0.30 < 0.2Ad >1.70 > 1.05
(All values are in ml of equivalent volume)

The Acoustic Reflex• Stapedius contraction measured as change
in compliance
• Reflex arc:– peripheral ear,
– VIIIth n.
– Cochlear nucleus
– Superior Olivary Complexes
– Medial Nuclei of VII
– VIIth nerves to both middle ears

Clinical Tests using Acoustic Reflexes:
• A.R. Threshold: how intense sound must be to elicit the reflex?
• A.R. Decay: Is the degree of a contraction maintained throughout a 10 second stimulus?
![Page 10: Objective Tests of the Auditory System SPA 4302 Summer A, 2004.](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022081603/5697c0231a28abf838cd3ea0/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
AR Threshold:
• to pure-tones, 0.5, 1, 2, 4 kHz
• = lowest level at which change in admittance can be read
• ipsilaterally or contralaterally
• should be between 65 and 90 dB SL.

Otoacoustic Emissions (OAE)
• Low-level sounds produced by the cochlea and recordable in the external ear canal.
• Spontaneous
• Click-evoked
• Distortion Product
• Stimulus Frequency

OAE as Measure of Cochlear Health

Auditory Evoked PotentialsRecording: Comes From:
Electrocochleography Cochlea, VIIIth nerve
Auditory Brainstem Response VIIIth nerve & brainstem
Middle Latency Response Thalamus & auditory cortex
Auditory Late Response Auditory Cortices
P300 Hippocampus area

Auditory Brainstem Response
• Electrical response from neurons to sound
• Recorded by electrodes on scalp
• Coming from VIIIth nerve and brainstem
