Extra-tympanic electrocochleography in a normal population. A descriptive study.
Abstract Introduction and objectives Extra-tympanic electrocochleography is an electrophysiological register obtained after stimulating the cochlea with an audible stimulus. This stimulus is applied using an earphone over the external auditory canal, while the electrical activity is registered by surface electrodes. There are few studies that analyse normal electrocochleography in our environment. Thus, the main objective of our study was to regularise the values obtained with electrocochleography in ears without any otoneurological diseases. We explain in detail the process of obtaining the register. Methods Sixty healthy ears were studied by extratympanic electrocochleography. Statistical…
Electrococleografía extratimpánica en una población normal. Estudio descriptivo
Resumen Introduccion y objetivos La electrococleografia extratimpanica es un registro elecrofisiologico que refleja la actividad electrica acontecida en la coclea tras un estimulo sonoro. Se obtiene mediante la aplicacion del estimulo en el conducto auditivo externo y el registro de la actividad electrica mediante electrodos de superficie. Dada la escasa literatura existente acerca de la exploracion electrococleografica normal en nuestro medio, este estudio busca regularizar los valores obtenidos mediante esta exploracion en sujetos sin enfermedad otoneurologica y explicar detalladamente el proceso mediante el cual se obtiene el registro. Metodos Exploracion mediante electrococleografia ext…
