Ipsilateral and contralateral recordings of the 40-Hz auditory steady state response (ASSR): Which one is better?

CONCLUSION: The 40-Hz ASSR thresholds can be reliably recorded with ipsilateral and contralateral stimulation. For objective determination of hearing thresholds in young women, either ipsilateral or contralateral ASSR recording is appropriate. Nevertheless, the combination of both recordings might increase the diagnostic value of 40-Hz ASSR in estimating behavioural hearing thresholds.
