AbstractObjective: To investigate the effect of increased levels of background noise on click-evoked otoacoustic emission (CEOAE) recordings and to compare the effectiveness of the default CEOAE program with the QuickScreen CEOAE program in increased levels of noise, using an Otodynamics ILO88 recording device. Design: The right ears of 40 young adult women with normal hearing were assessed using CEOAEs under four different noise conditions and with two different methods of data collection. The noise conditions were in quiet, 50 dB A, 55 dB A, and 60 dB A of white noise. Data were collected at each noise level in the default mode and also using the ILO88 QuickScreen program. Results: There was a significant change in a number of important CEOAE output parameters with increased noise. In the default mode, mean whole wave reproducibility was 89.2% in quiet but declined to 85% with 50 dB A of white noise, 65% at 55 dB A and 20% at 60 dB A. The QuickScreen program proved more robust to the effects of noise than the default. In that mode, mean whole wave reproducibility was 91.7% in quiet, 92.5% with 50 dB A of white noise, 82.5% at 55 dB A and 45% at 60 dB A. Conclusions: The findings of the study indicate ambient noise levels for accurate CEOAE recording should not exceed 50 to 55 dB A of noise and alternatives to the default program should be considered in non-sound-treated situations.
