Why Is BERA Test Done?
Hearing loss in children is difficult to know from the beginning. Hearing loss can cause speech, language, cognitive, social and emotional problems. Therefore, it will be better if the hearing test in children is done early.
Healthy hearing is when the auditory nerve is able to transmit sound impulses from the ear to the brain at a certain speed. The BERA test can provide information on whether nerves convey sound impulses to the brain and whether the speed of sound delivery is within normal limits.
This hearing examination can determine the type of abnormality (conductive or sensor neural), severity (hearing threshold), and hearing loss (inner ear or other parts) of the child.
