520 3# - SUMMARY, ETC.
Summary, etc Background: Audiologists often lack confidence in results produced by current protocols for diagnostic<br/>electrophysiologic testing of infants. This leads to repeat testing appointments and slow protocols which<br/>extend the time needed to complete the testing and consequently delay fitting of amplification. A recent<br/>publication (Sininger et al, 2018) has shown how new technologies can be applied to electrophysiologic<br/>testing systems to improve confidence in results and allow faster test protocols. Average test times for<br/>complete audiogram predictions when using new technologies and protocols were found to be just over<br/>32 minutes using auditory brainstem response (ABR) and just under 20 minutes using auditory steadystate<br/>response (ASSR) technology.<br/>Purpose: The purpose of this manuscript is to provide details of expedited test protocols for infant and<br/>toddler diagnostic electrophysiologic testing.<br/>Summary: Several new technologies and their role in test speed and confidence are described including<br/>CE-Chirp stimuli, automated detection of ABRs using a technique called FMP, Bayesian weighting which is<br/>an alternative to standard artifact rejection and Next-Generation ASSR with improved response detection<br/>and chirp stimuli. The test protocol has the following features: (1) preliminary testing includes impedance<br/>measures and otoacoustic emissions, (2) starting test levels are based on Broad-Band CE-Chirp thresholds<br/>in each ear, (3) ABRs or ASSRs are considered present based on automated detection rather than<br/>on replication of responses, (4) number of test levels is minimized, (5) ASSR generally evaluates four<br/>frequencies in each ear simultaneously with flexibility to change all test levels independently.<br/>Conclusions: Combining new technologies with common-sense strategies has been shown to substantially<br/>reduce test times for predicting audiometric thresholds in infants and toddlers (Sininger et al, 2018).<br/>Details and rationales for changing test strategies and protocols are given and case examples are used to<br/>illustrate.
