[Provoked oto-emissions. Parameters obtained in normal subjects using Kemp's equipment].

Response parameters relating to the stimulus (click or filtrated bursts), the patient's age and audition curve (physiological presbyacusis) were derived from 3158 provoked otoemission (POE) recordings obtained in normal subjects. Current limits imposed by the device used constitute a factor restricting indications for such devices to the screening of loss hearing in the young child, obviously, but also to the investigation of certain paucisymptomatic hearing disorders presenting with normal or subnormal pure tome audiograms.
