What is audiometric testing like for children under 12 months of age?
Test same as infants
What is audiometric testing like of children over 5 years?

Simplification of procedures
In what grades do we do school hearing screenings (3)?
kindergarten through 3rd grade, 7th grade, 11th grade
At what frequencies do we do school hearing screenings?
1000, 2000, 4000 Hz
At what intensity do we do school hearing screenings?
20 dB HL
What is counted as a failure in school hearing screenings?
No response at any frequency in either ear,
Testing hearing at 1000 (at 20 dB HL), 2000 (at 20 dB HL), 4000 Hz (at 25 dB HL)
Stage 1 screen
If someone fails the stage 1 screen, how long do we have to wait to re-test it?
4 weeks
Testing hearing at 250, 500, 1000, 2000, 4000, 8000 Hz using AC and BC
Stage 2 threshold audiogram
What is the fail criterion for stage 2 threshold audiogram?
BC is better than AC, check values on powerpoint!!!
AC pure tone averages of ear differ by 10 dB or more; making a medical referral
Stage III
What are the 3 neurophysiological measures we use for newborn and infant hearing screening?
ABR, OAEs, Tymps
What are the behavioral measures we use to screen newborn and infant hearing?
Startle reflex, change in respiration or sucking, rudimentary head turn
What does BOA stand for?
Behavioral observation audiometry
BOA includes arousal from sleep from intense stimulus
Newborn
BOA includes rudimentary head turn
3 - 4 months
BOA includes localization to the side only
4 - 7 months
BOA includes localization to side and indirectly below
7 - 9 months
BOA includes localizes to side and below
9 - 13 months
BOA includes localize to side, below, and indirectly above
13 - 16 months
BOA includes localizes directly to the side, below, and above
16 - 21 months
BOA includes localization in all directions
21 - 24 months
Pairing a pure tone with an animated toy, 1 toy inform and center as a distractor
VRA (visual reinforcement audiometry)
What is an example of TROCA?
Receiving an award in the clown’s mouth after hearing something
What is an example of play audiometry?
When you hear the beep put the block in the bucket
