Complete absence of waves in BERA can occur whenever there is severe hearing loss. It may mean that his hearing nerves are weak. But sometimes even middle ear problems can present similarly. This should be combined with test known as oto acoustic emissions to confirm inner ear problems
Next Steps
Consult nearby ENT specialist for confirmation of diagnosis and appropriate treatment if required
