Abstract
Auditory brainstem response (ABR) is an objective test typically carried out to estimate behavioral hearing thresholds among difficult-to-test children. The latencies of ABR waveforms are commonly used for hearing diagnosis. The available ABR normative data are utilized as guidelines by clinicians to identify the prominent peaks of ABR. In this paper, atypical ABR waveforms of a normal child were reported. Several useful points were highlighted from the present case report to guide clinicians to appropriately interpret the ABR results.
