What Does BAEP Stand For?

BAEP stands for Brainstem Auditory Evoked Potentials

BAEP, or Brainstem Auditory Evoked Potentials, refers to a series of electrical signals generated by the brainstem in response to auditory stimuli. These potentials are measured using electroencephalography (EEG) techniques and are critical in assessing the integrity of the auditory pathways from the ear to the brain. BAEP tests are commonly used in clinical settings to diagnose hearing impairments, neurological disorders, and to monitor the effects of surgical interventions on auditory function.
