Age-adjusted analysis of cVEMP frequency tuning using spline approximation for diagnosis of endolymphatic hydrops

Key Points

• To evaluate a spline approximation method for estimating cVEMP peaks, removing age-related effects for diagnosis.
• Utilized spline approximation to estimate cVEMP frequency peaks.
• Implemented age-adjusted scoring to eliminate age-related biases.
• Focused on populations with and without endolymphatic hydrops.
• Improved estimation of cVEMP peaks compared to traditional methods.
• Age-adjusted scoring effectively eliminated age-related disparities.
• Demonstrated potential as a practical diagnostic tool for Meniere's Disease in older individuals.
