Frequency-Following Response in Newborns and Infants: A Systematic Review of Acquisition Parameters

Conclusions There is a consensus in the use of some acquisition parameters of the FFR with speech stimulus, such as the vertical mounting, the use of alternating polarity, a sampling rate of 20000 Hz, and the /da/ synthesized syllable of 40 ms in duration as the preferred stimulus. Although these parameters show some consensus, the results disclosed lack of a single established protocol for FFR acquisition with speech stimulus in infants in the investigated age range.PMID:34057846 | DOI:10.1044/2021_JSLHR-20-00639
