CNIM questions with correct answers

CNIM electrocochleogram - correct answer consists of electrical responses of the cochlea and the auditory nerve to acoustic stimulation. (1) the cochlear microphonic; (2) the summating potential; and (3) the auditory nerve compound action potential (AP). - correct answer electrocochleogram includes (3) BAEP - correct answer responses of the auditory nerve, brainstem, and, perhaps, higher subcortical structures to acoustic stimulation. (1) distal auditory nerve (2) proximal auditory nerve (3)Superior Olivary complex (contra) (4)Lateral Lemniscus (5)Inferior Colliculus (contra) - correct answer BAEP responses by wave 5 to 200/s. - correct answer BAEP stimulus rate 8—10/s - correct answer BAEP stimulus rate best suited for waves I, II, VI, VII 40 and 120 dB pe SPL. - correct answer BAEP general stimulus intensity monaural (one eared) - correct answer clicks are generally administed ___, or ___ ear at a time 60 dB SPL - correct answer It is recommended that the contralateral (nonstimulated) ear be masked by white noise at _______ to eliminate "crossover" responses
