Abstract
The standard auditory brainstem response (ABR) has not been reported as useful in detecting patients with intracranial lesions and mild or moderately increased intracranial pressure (ICP) within the ranges frequently encountered clinically (Goitein et al. 1983; Stone et al. 1988). The present investigation was designed to enhance the sensitivity of ABR testing in this patient population.
