Abstract: OBJECTIVE To compare the difference of octave band CE-Chirp ABR response threshold and behavioral auditory thresholds in children with hearing loss, and to explore the clinical value of octave band CE-Chirp ABR. METHODS Twenty-one children (40 ears) with hearing loss were selected. The octave band CE-Chirp ABR response threshold and behavioral auditory hearing threshold were measured in quiet environment. The results of two different test methods were compared. RESULTS The frequencies of octave band CE-Chirp ABR response thresholds and behavioral auditory thresholds were statistically analyzed. The correlation coefficients at different frequencies were 0.693, 0.830, 0.836 and 0.845, respectively, and the P values were ＜0.05. CONCLUSION There is good correlation between octave band CE-Chirp ABR response and behavioral auditory hearing measurement. Octave band CE-Chirp ABR, as an objective audiometry technique, has good stability and reliability for the objective response of hearing loss, and can better reflect the hearing level.
