This study aims to determine the amplitude changes in the test-retest condition of distortion product otoacoustic emissions (DPOAEs) and transient-evoked otoacoustic emissions (TEOAEs), which are widely used in clinical settings.DesignDPOAE and TEOAE measurements were taken in 110 ears of 55 adults aged 18-35 years with normal hearing during three sessions. The repeatability of the measurements was evaluated by very short-term measurements taken 20 min after the first measurement and by short-term measurements taken 20 days after the first measurement.ResultsThere was no statistically significant difference between the three measurements in which DPOAE and TEOAE amplitudes were evaluated. The weakest reliability for TEOAEs was determined at frequencies of 1.0 kHz and 1.5 kHz, and the weakest reliability for DPOAEs was determined at 6728 Hz.ConclusionsThe current findings indicate that DPOAE and TEOAE measurements are reliable for monitoring cochlear function over time. The data obtained from this study could help clinicians correctly interpret OAE changes and distinguish between physiological and pathological changes.eninfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessOtoacoustic Emission; Cochlear Function; Reliability; Dpoae; TeoaeOtoacoustic emission measurements: a test-retest reliability studyArticle10.1186/s43163-023-00513-0391N/AWOS:0010768628000012-s2.0-85173116258Q4
