Introduction
perception that sounds become rapidly louder with increasing sound level
Etiology
- cochlear disorder
Pathology
- damage to outer hair cells alters characteristics of the basilar membrane, resulting in aberrant auditory nerve responses that may be associated with recruitment of loudness
Clinical manifestations
- common for people with cochlear disorders to request other people to 'speak louder' followed by a complaint of 'stop shouting'
