For the first time, brainstem auditory evoked potentials (BAEP) and very early auditory evoked potentials (EAEP) were investigated in 23 volunteers (mean age: 26.5 +/- 3.6 years) under resting conditions and during continuous and frequency modulated (2 Hz) laser stimulation in the external auditory meatus.
Using a new ear adapter, the outer region of the auditory canal was stimulated with laser light (685 nm, 4 x 30-40 mW, duration: 10 minutes).
The EAEPs were significantly changed during continuous (p=0.019), as well as frequency modulated (p=0.014) laser stimulation compared with control measurements.
Physiologic alterations of inner ear mechanism such as extra-cerebral changes in conductance or stimulation-dependent depolarization processes in extra-cerebral regions of the auditory system could be possible explanations for the significant difference in measurement parameters.
首次在23名志愿者(平均年龄:26.5±3.6岁)处于静息状态以及在外耳道进行连续和频率调制(2赫兹)激光刺激期间,对脑干听觉诱发电位(BAEP)和极早期听觉诱发电位(EAEP)进行了研究。
使用一种新型耳适配器,用激光(685纳米,4×30 - 40毫瓦,持续时间:10分钟)刺激外耳道外部区域。
与对照测量相比,在连续(p = 0.019)以及频率调制(p = 0.014)激光刺激期间,极早期听觉诱发电位发生了显著变化。
内耳机制的生理改变,如听觉系统脑外区域电导的脑外变化或刺激依赖性去极化过程,可能是测量参数存在显著差异的原因。
