Cortical auditory evoked potential in babies and children listeners.

Introduction: Cortical auditory evoked potentials have been increasingly used in research and audiological routines. However, there is a lack of studies with a large number of children who are stratified by age group. These would help clarify the variations in latency and amplitude of cortical auditory evoked potentials, and thus help establish reference values in children of different ages.

P300: Waves Identification with and without Subtraction of Traces.

 The P300 test requires well-defined and unique criteria, in addition to training for the examiners, for a uniform analysis of studies and to avoid variations and errors in the interpretation of measurement results.  The objective of this study is to verify whether there are differences in P300 with and without subtraction of traces of standard and nonstandard stimuli.  We conducted this study in collaboration with two research electrophysiology laboratories.

Auditory Alterations in Children Infected by Human Immunodeficiency Virus Verified Through Auditory Processing Test.

 The auditory system of HIV-positive children may have deficits at various levels, such as the high incidence of problems in the middle ear that can cause hearing loss.  The objective of this study is to characterize the development of children infected by the Human Immunodeficiency Virus (HIV) in the Simplified Auditory Processing Test (SAPT) and the Staggered Spondaic Word Test.  We performed behavioral tests composed of the Simplified Auditory Processing Test and the Portuguese version of the Staggered Spondaic Word Test (SSW).

Auditory Middle Latency Response and Phonological Awareness in Students with Learning Disabilities.

Introduction Behavioral tests of auditory processing have been applied in schools and highlight the association between phonological awareness abilities and auditory processing, confirming that low performance on phonological awareness tests may be due to low performance on auditory processing tests. Objective To characterize the auditory middle latency response and the phonological awareness tests and to investigate correlations between responses in a group of children with learning disorders. Methods The study included 25 students with learning disabilities.

Cognitive potential of children with attention deficit and hyperactivity disorder.

Unlabelled: The literature has described comorbidities among the symptoms of children with Attention Deficit and Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) and the auditory processing changes, and these symptoms have been overlooked in the assessment, and consequently, on the rehabilitation of these individuals.

Objective: To compare the findings of the long latency auditory evoked potentials in children with and without ADHD.

Method: This is a historical cohort cross-sectional case-control study, in which we enrolled 30 children with and without ADHD, aged 8-12 years.
