Search for normality criteria of auditory brain responses and auditory steady state response with free-field stimulation.

CONCLUSIONS: The thresholds obtained in ABR by free-field were differentiated from those obtained by headphones in the increase of latencies, caused by delayed stimulation of the ear due to the distance between the sound source and the eardrum. Both tests are feasible by free-field stimulation, which would allow them to be applied routinely to patients on whom conventional tests cannot be performed.
