Outcome measures
Primary outcome
Parameters to describe the P300 peak; the latency and the amplitude.
Secondary outcome
not applicable
Background summary
Auditory information is conducted from the cochlea to the brain in a way that
is - to a certain extend - measurable. If we measure auditory event related
potentials (AERP's), we measure the reaction of the brain to sound. The
hypothesis of this study is: the better (more synchonus and quicker) the sound
is conducted to the brain, the shorter the latency of the P300 peak, and the
better the auditory processing.
Study objective
The aim of the study is to archive an objective measure for auditory processing
disorders, using the P300 measurement, an auditory event related potential.
This to be able to discriminate between children with and without auditory
processing disorders.
Study design
The study designs is: case control study, in which also a correlation analysis
will take place.
Study burden and risks
The burden assiciated with participation is undergoing the tests, for the
patientgroup whis will cost an extra 40 minutes, for the control group this wil
cost 2 hours at maximum divided over 2 or 3 sessions. There is no risk at
participation.
