100
These OAEs are sounds generated by the cochlea and recorded in the absence of a sound stimuli.
What are spontaneous OAEs?
100
A case history allows the audiology to interact with the patient and make these.
What are behavioral observations?
100
This masking rule states masking is needed in the test ear if there is a 40 dB difference between the test ear and the nontest ear.
What is the air conduction masking rule?
100
The /o/ is used to represent responses for the right ear while this symbol is used for the left ear.
What is an /x/?
100
This individual is the author of an audiological report.
Who is the clinician?
200
This type of evoked OAE is elicited using a click stimulus.
What are transient evoked OAEs?
200
The questions on a case history form are typically developed by this person.
Who is the clinician or manager?
200
This masking rule states masking is needed if there is a difference of more than 10 dB between the air and bone conduction scores.
What is the bone conduction masking rule.
200
These symbols are used to represent masked bone conduction scores.
What are brackets?
200
This legal document protects a patient's privacy.
What is HIPAA?
300
These abbreviations are used to describe the two tones used to elicit distortion product OAEs.
What are F1 and F2?
300
Patients who are experiencing vertigo, tinnitus or an auditory processing disorder are considered one of these.
What is a special population?
300
The only way to obtain ear specific scores for this test is if masking is completed.
What is bone conduction?
300
The PTA scores are compared to the results of this test to determine test/re-test reliability.
What are speech recognition thresholds?
300
This portion of the report contains all of the patient's contact information.
What is the identifying information section?
400
When the patient is an infant, the instructions are given to this individual.
Who is the parent or guardian?
400
This type of case history often lest you fill in missing information or provide additional information.
What is a verbal case history?
400
The masking noise goes into this ear while the pure tone is presented to the other.
What is the non-test ear?
400
In order to determine the intensity level to be used for WRS, you must add 30-40 dB to this test result.
What are speech recognition thresholds?
400
This portion of the audiological report can be presented in paragraph or outline format.
What is the recommendations section?
500
OAEs will likely be absent if there is a conductive component or this type of hearing loss.
What is sensorineural?
500
In addition to the patient, this person can provide case history information.
Who is a parent, guardian or other family member?
500
This type of noise is used to mask pure tones for both air and bone conduction.
What is narrow band noise?
500
When describing the hearing loss present you should start on this side and end on this side.
What is left to right?
500
This section is abbreviated CC and is the last portion of an audiological report.
