Q

Childhood Infections that can cause hearing loss.

A

Meningitis:

Viral Diseases

21
Q

Auditory Neuropathy Spectrum Disorder

A

may show normal hearing to pure tones or only a mild to moderate loss while having great difficulty understanding speech.

similar to CAPD

22
Q

What age do you use behavioral observation?

A

0-6months

23
Q

What do you look for with behavioral observation

A

moro reflexes, aural, or any response

24
Q

What age do you use Visual Reinforcement Audiometry?

A

6 months-2years

25
Q

How does Visual Reinforcement Audiometry work?

A
  • Condition child to turn his/her head to the right when a sound is presented from that side and to the left when coming from the left side.
  • After the child is considered “conditioned” in that he/she consistently looks right and left, testing can commence.
  • randomly choose right or left and reduce the stimulus in 10 or 15dB steps.
26
Q

What age do you use conditioned play audiomtery?

A

2-4 yearrs

27
Q

2 types of speech audiomtery

A

SAT

SRT

28
Q

SAT

A

awareness

29
Q

SRT

A

understanding

30
Q

Typanametry

A

measures the reflected sound under various air pressure placed on the outside of the eardrum.

31
Q

Acoustic Reflex Thresholds

A

measures presence or absence of reflexes

32
Q

Otoacoustic Emissions

A

measures sounds that come out of the ear from the inner ear.

33
Q

Sensitivity

A

failing those who should fail

34
Q

Specificity

A

passing those who should pass

35
Q

False Positives

A

How often does the test identify normal hearers as being hearing impaired?

36
Q

37
Q

incidence

A

frequency of new outbreaks

38
Q

What does JCIH reccomend ?
