BACKGROUND: High levels of sound intensity can be detected by the vestibular system. It is a clinical method used to assess the vestibular system’s response to sound stimulation. In healthy individuals, research has indicated that the use of low-frequency stimuli results in decreased vestibular evoked myogenic potential (VEMP) thresholds, especially a 500 Hz tone-burst. As people age, their frequency tuning changes, moving towards higher frequencies.
