Total questions: 10
Worksheet time: 5mins
What is the normal protocol to follow when evaluating a hearing loss?
Patient history, Otoscopy,Immitancer,Audiometry test battery,etc..
Audiometry Test battery, Patient history,Immitancer, Otoscopy, etc..
Otoscopy, Immitancer, Patient history, Audiometry test battery, etc..
Talking to the patient is enough
What is the difference between the AccuScreen and the Alpha OAE
Both are used in New Born Screening programs
The Alpha OAE can be used to perform AABR
Only the AccuScreen can perform OAE
The Alpa OAE is used for OAE Screening, whilst the AccuScreen can be used for AABR as well as OAE
The New Born screening programs are made for?
Because the government has a lot of money and wants to spend it somewhere
To better diagnose a child so as to look for a solution in case of hearing impairment
To perform hearing screening on Senoir citizens
All the above are incorrect.
In case of a referral in a screening program, what is recommended?
Redo the test after a week
Redo the test after a time and if it does not pass, refer to an ABR diagnostics
Check if there is any issue with the middle ear
All the above are correct
To measure a contralateral response with an immitancer, what do we have to do?
An immitancer with an ipsilateral probe is more tan enough
An immitancer with both ipsi and contralateral probe must be used
If my probe has the 1000 Hz and the 226 Hz, that is all I need.
We stimulate the contralateral side but the measurement is carried out where the ipsilateral probe is.
What does the 226 Hz and the 1000 Hz stand for in the immitance testing?
226 Hz is for children and 1000 Hz is for adult
Both are the same no matter the age
226 Hz is for adult and 1000 Hz for a child below 6 months
It is recommended to use only 226 Hz
What is the OTOsuite?
It is a patient management system
It is a suite that connects some of the solutions of Otometrics
It is used for Otometrics solutions as well as Interacoustics solutions
It is only used under the platform of NOAH
When is masking important?
When there is no difference in the hearing test between both ears
When there is a significant difference between both ears evaluated
Only when there is a difference in the air conductor evaluation
When the masking assistance tells me to
How can I access to my predefined protocols?
Pressing the F8 key on my keyboard
Phoning Otometrics Hotline
Making it once more
Pressing the combined key, Ctrl+Alt+Delete
How is the Acoustic Reflex Decay perfomed?
At 500 Hz or 1kHz adding 5 dB to the réflex threshold of one of those frequencies
At 500 Hz or 1kHz adding 10 dB to the réflex threshold of one of those frequencies
At 500 Hz, 1kHz, 2kHz and 4kHz adding 10 dB to the réflex threshold all the frequencies
Doing a Valsalva test.
