Abstract		Registration of evoked otoacoustic emissions is a noninvasive, objective and quick test for cochlear function. The measurement was performed by Madsen-Electronics CelesaTM 503 on 181 ears. The otoacoustic emissions could not be evoked in 10% of cases because of noise and in 11,6 % where the hearing loss was more than 30 dB in speech frequences. Conclear malfunction was stated in 3,86 % wheras retrocochlear lesion was diagnosed in 1,1 % of cases. The recording of evoked otoacoustic emissions succeeded also in patients who are difficult to test, making the assessment of hearing a less time consuming procedure.
Summary		Metoda vzbujenega zvočnega sevanja ušesa je neinvazivna, objektivna in hitra preiskava sluha. Daje nam vpogled v delovanje polža. meritev smo opravili z Madsen-Electronicsovo napravo CelestaTM pri 181 ušesih. Pri 10 % primerov preiskava ni uspela zaradi hrupa, pri 11,6 % je bila naglušnost večja od 30 dB v govornem območju, pri 3,86 % pa je bil vzrok okvare sluha v motenem delovanju notranjega ušesa. Okvaro slušne proge za polžem smo potrdili v 1,1 % primerov. Meritev je uspela tudi pri osebah s težko določljivim sluhom, kar bistveno skrajša diagnostični postopek.
