This book bridges the gap between theory and clinical application for electro-acoustic and electro-physiologic assessment of hearing loss across the age range. Strategies and techniques for screening and diagnosis of hearing loss are presented clearly and simply. The authors incorporate findings of accumulated clinical experience and recent clinical research in a readable review of electro-acoustic measures (immittance measures and otoacoustic emissions) and electro-physiologic measures (electrocochleography, ABR and ASSR) that are essential for best practice in audiology today. This book is a one-stop resource for clinicians who are responsible for the diagnostic auditory assessment of children and adults.
