| HI Daisy & Shiba-Inu My son failed the OAE in hospital again. The 聽力學家 refer him to do the ARB test. However, we must wait for the appointment until august. I want to ask how serious of my son's condition. The OAE we done in hospital with 7 frequency. The 聽力學家told me that he must passed 5 frequency but he only passed one in his right ear and failed all in left ear. The 聽力學家 also told me he has response but not strong enough. Of course, I 'm very sad but I don't want to increase the pressure of my husband. I am very confuse because many times , my son can response to me. So , I want to ask is he mild loss or severe loss his hearing? Is there any case that failed in OAE but pass in ARB test ? Daisy, why 子喬can refer to EMB so fast ? Thank you for answering my question. |

| Hi mdoip, 我都係在東區覆診呀，子喬3個月時做ABR test唔合格，跟住就叫我地去睇兒科＆耳鼻喉（詳情可睇番之前留言），子喬無做到OAE test喎． 或者你BB情況唔係咁差，所以唔急住transfer，否則既然有link up，都會refer你去EMB啦，寫幾隻字 |

| Yanyan's 肥豬腳 really look yummy!!! :lalala: Daisy and mdoip, Usually the sequence of testing newborn baby's hearing is as follow: OAE (for univeral screening of all babies' hearing, first gatekeeper) -> ABR (objective test, does not need any response from the babies, but need sedation) -> other behaviour test e.g. VRA (subjective test, needs babies' response and needs to be age- & ability- appropriate) As babies' hearing is so difficult to test, audiologists usually do all (we call "battery of test") to obtain more information. So there is nothing as one method being better than the other, the most important thing is how the audiologists intergrate all the information together to get a clearer picture of babies' hearing. |

| Quote: mdoip 寫道: So , I want to ask is he mild loss or severe loss his hearing? Is there any case that failed in OAE but pass in ARB test ? mdoip, OAE cannot tell the degree of hearing loss. It's just a test of pass or fail. Yes, as I have explained in the other forums (please see the links in my previous message), OAE fail a small portion of normal hearing babies as well. So there's a possibility of failing OAE and then get normal results in ABR. Quote: mdoip 寫道: The 聽力學家 refer him to do the ARB test. However, we must wait for the appointment until august. If u and your family want a peace of mind and get ABR results before Aug, there is just a few private hearing aid company/ hospital (?) out there that can do ABR on babies. I may email u the phone no. of these places, but mind u two things: 1. Your son needs to be sedated to do the test. 2. Price maybe around thousands. On the other hand, if your son is 6 months or older, and have enough support for the nect to turn and trace subjects visually, u can self-refer yourself to EMB and try to see if he can do VRA (what test the audiologist can do depend on the condition of your son on that day though). |

| Quote: DaisyWong 寫道: 子喬剛做完VRA test，結果話有residual hearing，何故咁confuse，因為ABR test話hearing lost Daisy, ABR test is not frequency specific, and it tells the part of the story mainly on the high-frequencies part. So the report usually says somethings like "at least severe hearing loss in the high freq for both ears". However, audiologist can try different freq on the babies when tested with VRA. It's quite common for hearing loss to be worse in the high freq than low and middle freq, and at diff freq they may have diff degree of loss. e.g. "moderate loss at low freq sloping to profound loss at high freq" - then the baby is described as having "residual hearing" at the low freq. |

| Hi mdoip, 你試吓打電話去下葵涌特殊教育聽覺服務組問吓(tel: 23075071) ，我唔清楚洗唔洗醫生轉介，你try吓啦，都無壞嘅。 另外，或者試吓打去"宣美語言及聽覺中心"問吓，將你嗰case話比佢哋聽，佢哋好快有人回覆，(我試過打去enquiry，但就未睇過，因為我已排緊EMB)。 --> www.suenmeicentre.com 你BB而家幾大呀?係邊度做listening test呀? 子喬媽上 |

| HI Shiba-Inu, Thank you for answering my questions. You're so kind to spend time to answer my questions. I told my husband about your suggestions , and he wanted to have the detail about the private hearing aid company. So , pls email to me the phone no. of those company. Thank you! Pls forgive me because I have so many questions to ask. Can the ABR test tells us the degree of hearing loss? If my son fail the ABR test , he need to do more test or not? |

| hi daisy, 多謝你熱心的回應 ! 也謝謝你提供的資料 ! 我bb現在六個月, 二個月時在健康院做OAE兩次不及格 ,本星期到屯門醫院做OAE仍是不合格, 聽力學家 再叫我們排期做ABR , 但要等到8月, 我現在不知有什麼可以做?所以我才問你為什麼子喬能這麼快refer 去EMB. 我想快些做 , 但我又對結果感到很恐懼 !!!!!其實 , 健康院的姑娘很好 , 因她知道我的情緒很波動 , 所以這個星期特地打電話給我 , 希望知道我BB的情況 , 可惜沒有好消息告訴她 , 自己好想多謝她 , 但我實在....... 對不起 ! 我其實很明白你的感受 , 我會向你學習! 謝謝 , 聽我發盧蘇! 希望你原諒 |
