  • transient evoked otoacoustic emission signals predicting outcomes of acute sensorineural hearing loss in patients with meniere s disease
    arXiv: Signal Processing, 2019
    Co-Authors: Yiwen Liu, Shenglun Kao, Tzuchi Liu, Teyung Fang, Pachun Wang
    Abstract:

    Background: Fluctuating hearing loss is characteristic of Meniere's Disease (MD) during acute episodes. However, no reliable audiometric hallmarks are available for counselling the hearing recovery possibility. Aims/Objectives: To find parameters for predicting MD hearing outcomes. Material and Methods: We applied Machine Learning techniques to analyse transient-evoked otoacoustic emission (TEOAE) signals recorded from patients with MD. Thirty unilateral MD patients were recruited prospectively after onset of acute cochleo-vestibular symptoms. Serial TEOAE and pure-tone audiogram (PTA) data were recorded longitudinally. Denoised TEOAE signals were projected onto the three most prominent principal directions through a linear transformation. Binary classification was performed using a support vector Machine (SVM). TEOAE signal parameters, including signal energy and group delay, were compared between improved and nonimproved groups using Welchs t-test. Results: Signal energy did not differ (p = 0.64) but a significant difference in 1-kHz (p = 0.045) group delay was recorded between improved and nonimproved groups. The SVM achieved a cross-validated accuracy of >80% in predicting hearing outcomes. Conclusions and Significance: This study revealed that baseline TEOAE parameters obtained during acute MD episodes, when processed through Machine Learning Technology, may provide information on outer hair cell function to predict hearing recovery.
