An estimate of the traveling wave velocity (TWV) was evaluated in 18 young adults to determine the technique's applicability as a possible tool in evaluating Meniere's disease. This TWV estimation uses a derived auditory brain stem response procedure requiring high-intensity masking. The results indicate that on average, TWVs were similar to those obtained via psychophysical measures or electrocochleography. However, instances of undermasking, due to subjects' intolerance, resulted in a number of subjects exhibiting faster than expected TWVs.
对18名年轻成年人的行波速度(TWV)进行了评估,以确定该技术作为评估梅尼埃病的一种可能工具的适用性。这种TWV估计采用了一种需要高强度掩蔽的听觉脑干反应衍生程序。结果表明,平均而言,TWV与通过心理物理学测量或耳蜗电图获得的结果相似。然而,由于受试者不耐受导致的掩蔽不足情况,使得一些受试者的TWV比预期更快。
