Abstract Utilizing audiometry, acoustic reflex threshold and reflex decay testing, electronystagmography and the brain stem auditory evoked response, cochlear‐vestibular and brain stem function in chronic renal failure has been investigated. After elimination of the etiologic factors known to affect — or possibly affect — such function, a clinically significant abnormality of auditory, vestibular and brain stem function was not noted.
