The auditory brainstem response (ABR) can be elicited by broadband stimuli such as the click and chirp. Differences in the click- and chirp-evoked ABR have been extensively described using subjective analyses. The aim of the current research included in this SIG 6 activity is to determine if subjectively observed differences between the click- and chirp-evoked ABR are also represented in objective signal-to-noise ratio measurements obtained from these responses at different stimulus intensities and sweep counts.

Learning Outcomes
You will be able to:

• list the advantages of using the chirp versus the click from a clinical standpoint

Assessment Type
Self-assessment—Think about what you learned and report on the Completion Form how you will use your new knowledge.
