Abstrakt: | An Auditory Steady-State Response (ASSR) is a valuable tool for determining auditory thresholds in individuals who are either unable or unwilling to cooperate with conventional behavioral testing methods. This study proposes a sequential test technique for automatic detection of ASSRs, incorporating a non-detection stopping criterion. The electrophysiological thresholds of a normal hearing volunteer were established using data collected from multichannel EEG signals. The detection probabilities and critical values were obtained via Monte Carlo simulations. Remarkably, application of the non-detection stopping criterion resulted in a 60% reduction in exam time in the absence of a response. These findings clearly demonstrate the significant potential of the sequential test in enhancing the performance of automatic audiometry. |
