PURPOSE: Tone-pip-evoked otoacoustic emissions (PEOAEs) are transient-evoked otoacoustic emissions (OAEs) that are hypothesized to originate from reflection of energy near the best-frequency (BF) cochlear place of the stimulus frequency. However, individual PEOAEs have energy with a wide range of delays. We sought to determine whether some PEOAE energy is consistent with having been generated far from BF.
METHODS: PEOAEs from 35 and 47 dB SPL tone pips were obtained by removing pip-stimulus energy by subtracting the ear-canal sound pressure from scaled-down 59 dB SPL tone pips (which evoke relatively small OAEs). PEOAE delays were measured at each peak in the PEOAE absolute-value waveforms. While measuring PEOAEs and auditory-nerve compound action potentials (CAPs), amplification was blocked sequentially from apex to base by cochlear salicylate perfusion. The perfusion time when a CAP was reduced identified when the perfusion reached the tone-pip BF place. The perfusion times when each PEOAE peak was reduced identified where along the cochlea it received cochlear amplification. PEOAEs and CAPs were measured simultaneously using one pip frequency in each ear (1.4 to 4 kHz across 16 ears).
RESULTS: Most PEOAE peaks received amplification primarily between the BF place and 1-2 octaves basal of the BF place. PEOAE peaks with short delays received amplification basal of BF place. PEOAE peaks with longer delays sometimes received amplification apical of BF place, consistent with previous stimulus-frequency-OAE results.
CONCLUSION: PEOAEs provide information about cochlear amplification primarily within ~ 1.5 octave of the tone-pip BF place, not about regions > 3 octaves basal of BF.
