Abstract

Objective To observe the change of brainstem auditory evoked potential(BAEP)of cerebral concussion patients.Methods The results of BAEP of 60 patients with cerebral concussion were analyzed and were compared with the results of CT test.Results Among the results of 60 cases of cerebral concussion,the abnormal rate of BAEP was 83%;the abnormal rate of CT test results was 21%.Conclusion BAEP is of great value in the early diagnosis of cerebral concussion and in the efficient evaluation of the function of brain stem.
