Study of brainstem auditory evoked potentials in early diagnosis of congenital toxoplasmosis

Abstract

10 (27%) children were identified with a possible unilateral alteration in the electrophysiological assessment. There was a 5-fold higher risk for a child between 1 and 3 months of age with toxoplasmosis to have an altered brainstem auditory evoked potential compared to a child of the same age range without the infection.
