Abstract：[Absract]Objective To study the correlation between tone burst auditory brainstem responses (tb-ABRs) and CE-Chirp voice evoked auditory steady-state responses (CE-Chirp ASSRs) in 100 infants with profound sensorineural hear-ing loss. Methods Infants (n=100) with profound sensorineural hearing loss underwent tone burst ABR and CE-Chirp ASSR tests for response thresholds at 0.5, 1.0, 2.0 and 4.0 kHz. Correlation between results by the two methods were analyzed us-ing the SPSS 11 statistical software. Results Coefficients between tb-ABR and CE-Chirp ASSR thresholds across 0.5 to 4.0 Hz were: 0.852, 0.911, 0.870 and 0.910, respectively (P<0.001), with no significant difference between CE-Chirp ASSR and tb-ABR thresholds (P>0.05, Chi square). Conclusion Infants with profound sensorineural hearing loss, as indicated by click ABRs, appear to show various levels of residual hearing on frequency specific tb-ABR and CE-Chirp ASSR tests, with good correlation between the two methods and no significant difference between left and right ears.
