成人CE-Chirp ABR反应阈与纯音听阈相关分析与比较

Correlation Analysis and Comparison of Adult CE-Chirp ABR Response Threshold and Pure Tone Hearing Threshold

目的 采用听神经同步专利刺激声(CE-Chirp声)对成人听性脑干反应(auditory brainstem response,ABR)进行测试,分析CE-Chirp ABR测试的V波反应阈与纯音听阈的关系,研究CE-Chirp声在法医学鉴定听觉功能障碍评估中的作用。方法 选择常州市德安医院2018年1月—2019年6月进行CE-Chirp ABR测试的受试者(年龄为20~77周岁,共计100耳),获得V波反应阈值,并在0.5、1.0、2.0、4.0 kHz分别进行纯音气导听阈测试,获得纯音听阈值,按照不同听力水平及不同年龄对受试者进行分组。比较不同听力水平及不同年龄组平均纯音听阈与V波反应阈之间的差值及统计学差异;对所有受试者各频率两种方法之间的相关性、差值及统计学差异进行分析;建立所有受试者CE-Chirp ABR V波反应阈推断纯音听阈的线性回归方程,并检验其推断纯音听阈的可行性。结果 不同听力水平及不同年龄组各组之间CE-Chirp ABR反应阈与纯音听阈差值的差异无统计学意义(P>0.05);各频率成人CE-Chirp ABR V波反应阈与纯音听阈之间相关性良好,两者之间差异具有统计学意义(P<0.05),线性回归分析显示两者之间有线性相关关系(P<0.05)。结论 运用CE-Chirp ABR Ⅴ波反应阈在一定条件下能够评估受试者的纯音听阈,可以作为一种听力学测试方法用于法医学听觉障碍评估。

Objective To study the application of CE-Chirp in the evaluation of hearing impairment in forensic medicine by testing the auditory brainstem response(ABR)in adults using CE-Chirp to analyze the relationship between the V-wave response threshold of CE-Chirp ABR test and the pure tone hearing threshold.Methods Subjects(aged 20-77 with a total of 100 ears)who underwent CE-Chirp ABR test in Changzhou De’an Hospital from January 2018 to June 2019 were selected to obtain the V-wave response threshold,and pure tone air conduction hearing threshold tests were conducted at 0.5,1.0,2.0 and 4.0 kHz,respectively,to obtain pure tone listening threshold.The differences and statistical differences between the average pure tone hearing threshold and V-wave response threshold were compared in different hearing levels and different age groups.The correlation,differences and statistical differences between the two tests at each frequency were analyzed for all subjects.The linear regression equation for estimating pure tone hearing threshold for all subjects CE-Chirp ABR V-wave response threshold was established,and the feasibility of the equation was tested.Results There was no statistical significance in the CE-Chirp ABR response threshold and pure tone hearing threshold difference between different hearing level groups and different age groups(P>0.05).There was a good correlation between adult CE-Chirp ABR V-wave response threshold and pure tone hearing threshold with statistical significance(P<0.05),and linear regression analysis showed a significant linear correlation between the two(P<0.05).Conclusion The use of CE-Chirp ABR V-wave response threshold can be used to evaluate subjects’pure tone hearing threshold under certain conditions,and can be used as an audiological test method for forensic hearing impairment assessment.
