摘要
This study examines the effect of posture on click evoked oloacoustic emissions, tympanic membrane displacement, and travelling wave velocity obtained using the auditory brainstem response. Statistically significant changes with posture were observed for each technique. The changes in evoked emission and tympanic membrane displacement measurements were comparable with those reported by previous experiments. Travelling wave velocity measurements were shown to be sensitive to inferred posturally-induced changes in labyrinthine fluid pressure of around 150 mm saline. There was no statistically significant correlation between posturally-induced changes measured by the three techniques. It is suggested that different mechanisms are responsible for the posturally-induced changes observed for the three techniques. © 1992, Informa UK Ltd. All rights reserved.
