ABSTRACT
To evaluate the feasibility of brainstem auditory evoked potential (BAEP) for rehabilitation prognosis prediction in patients with ischemic stroke, 181 patients were tested using the Korean version of the modified Barthel index (K-MBI) at admission (basal K-MBI) and discharge (follow-up K-MBI). The BAEP measurements were performed within two weeks of admission on average. The criterion between favorable and unfavorable outcomes was defined as a K-MBI score of 75 at discharge, which was the boundary between moderate and mild dependence in daily living activities. The changes in the K-MBI scores (discharge-admission) were analyzed by nonlinear regression models, including the artificial neural network (ANN) and support vector machine (SVM), with the basal K-MBI score, age, and interpeak latencies (IPLs) of the BAEP (waves I, I-III, and III-V). When including the BAEP features, the correlations of the ANN and SVM regression models increased to 0.70 and 0.64, respectively. In the outcome prediction, the ANN model with the basal K-MBI score, age, and BAEP IPLs exhibited a sensitivity of 92% and specificity of 90%. Our results suggest that the BAEP IPLs used with the basal K-MBI score and age can play an adjunctive role in the prediction of patient rehabilitation prognoses.
