What Does BAER Stand For?
BAER stands for Brainstem Auditory Evoked Response
BAER, or Brainstem Auditory Evoked Response, is a neurophysiological test that measures the electrical activity generated by the brainstem in response to sound stimuli. It involves the recording of auditory evoked potentials through electrodes placed on the scalp, allowing for the assessment of auditory pathways and the diagnosis of hearing impairments or neurological conditions. BAER is commonly used in clinical settings for evaluating hearing in infants, assessing neurological function, and monitoring intraoperative auditory function during surgeries.
