          Abstract

          RESUMO Objetivo: Caracterizar os valores de reflectância e absorvância de banda larga em lactentes com integridade de orelha média. Métodos: Foram analisados os valores de reflectância e absorvância de banda larga, para os estímulos chirp e tom puro, de 31 orelhas de 18 lactentes, na faixa etária de 10 dias a cinco meses de idade. Considerou-se como critérios de inclusão: ausência de fator de risco para deficiência auditiva, timpanometria com sonda de 1000 Hz, sugerindo normalidade de orelha média e presença de emissões otoacústicas evocadas por estímulo transiente, na triagem auditiva neonatal. Resultados: Os valores de reflectância mostraram-se maiores para as baixas frequências, reduzindo para as médias e aumentando, novamente, para as frequências altas, enquanto para os valores de absorvância, o comportamento foi o oposto. Não existiu diferença significativa entre os estímulos chirp e tom puro. Conclusão: Observou-se um comportamento típico das medidas estudadas, caracterizado por maior reflectância nas frequências graves e maior absorvância para as frequências médias.

          ABSTRACT Purpose: To characterize the wideband reflectance and absorbance values in infants with middle ear integrity. Methods: The wideband reflectance and absorbance values for chirp and pure tone stimuli of 31 ears of infants aged 10 days to five months were analyzed. Inclusion criteria considered: 1000 Hz tympanometry. suggesting normal middle ear and the presence of transient evoked otoacoustic emission. Results: The reflectance values were shown to be greater for low frequencies, reducing to medium ones and increasing once again to high frequencies, while the absorbance values displayed an opposite behavior. No significant difference was verified between chirp and pure tone stimuli. Conclusion: A typical behavior of the measures, characterized by a higher reflectance at low frequencies and higher absorbance at medium frequencies was observed in the population studied.

            Epidemiology, natural history, and risk factors: panel report from the Ninth International Research Conference on Otitis Media.

            The 2007 Recent Advances in Otitis Media Research Conference Panel Report provides an update on otitis media (OM) research published from 2003 to 2007. This report summarizes important trends in disease incidence and prevalence, describes established and newly identified risk factors for acute and chronic OM and OM with effusion, and conveys information on newly discovered genetic factors. In this report, researchers have described declining rates of OM diagnosis, antibiotic prescriptions, offices visits for OM, and middle ear surgery since the licensure and routine use of pneumococcal conjugate vaccine in infants. The panel report also recommends short and long term goals for current and future OM research. Copyright 2009 Elsevier Ireland Ltd. All rights reserved.

              Identification of Neonatal Hearing Impairment: Ear-Canal Measurements of Acoustic Admittance and Reflectance in Neonates

              1) To describe broad bandwidth measurements of acoustic admittance (Y) and energy reflectance (R) in the ear canals of neonates. 2) To describe a means for evaluating when a YR response is valid. 3) To describe the relations between these YR measurements and age, gender, left/right ear, and selected risk factors.
