5 | CONCLUSION
Among patients with SSNHL of ≤ 90 dB HL, 40% of patients had one or more worse ASSR predicted thresholds compared to pure-tone thresholds. Patients with a worse ASSR had greater last pure-tone thresholds than patients without a worse ASSR. The ASSR grouping was significantly associated with hearing recovery in SSNHL. Therefore, ASSR measurements can be used to predict the hearing prognosis of SSNHL.
