pubmed:abstractText |
The effect of the use of electric response audiometry (ERA) on the diagnosis and management of children has been investigated. A retrospective method was employed using the notes of the first 102 hearing assessments in 1978 where an ERA test was performed. The results show that the effect on diagnosis has been to improve the degree of certainty rather than to re-classify patients as deaf or normal. The effect on management has been to reduce by 24% the number of patients that require repeat assessment. These effects are more pronounced in the '0--1 age group' as opposed to the 'above 1 year' age group.
