To investigate the characteristics of air-conducted sound cervical vestibular evoked myogenic potential (ACS-cVEMP) and bone-conducted vibration cervical vestibular evoked myogenic potential (BCV-cVEMP) in healthy preschool children, and to provide the normal reference range of VEMP for preschool children in China. Forty-four normal-hearing children (88 ears) aged 3-7 years were recruited to undergo ACS-cVEMP and BCV-cVEMP determination. These children were divided into two groups according to age: 3-4 years old group ( 17 cases, 34 ears) and 5-7 years old group ( 27 cases, 54 ears).
