An advanced cochlear echo technique suitable for infant screening.
An advanced cochlear echo test technique has been specially developed to tackle some specific problems associated with measurements from infants. The test procedure and data processing combination has greatly improved noise immunity and has given very reliable results on poorly co-operating children. Technical details are given and the results of a study of 105 ears from 55 children are presented. The potential of the advanced technique as a screening test is discussed.
