Even though the DPOAE level data obtained at frequencies greater than 8 kHz were more variable than at low frequencies, the higher frequencies were found to be repeatable for both paradigms tested. These results encourage the exploration of high-frequency DPOAE measures to be used as an objective test for monitoring ototoxicity in humans. Testing subjects receiving ototoxic therapies is a necessary step in determining if monitoring high-frequency DPOAEs will successfully predict ototoxic effects.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
