Have you ever heard of a child testing positive for a loss in a

audiogram and not on the ABR? My daughter is 3 and is a late talker. She

gains language in chunks. And she really has made a lot of progress. Could

this result happen from a fluctuating hearing loss?

They are often done on older kids who are unable to respond in the booth,

such as some kids with other medical involvements. My audie has done ABRs

on CP kids, DS kids, and plenty of others all the way up to age 18 (she's

strictly a ped. aud.). Of course, you want to avoid general anesthesia on

anyone whenever possible, but sometimes this is the best route to go when

there's confusion.

Sheri when you say she gains language....spoken English or signs? Does

anybody know about Auditory Neuropathy? I forget if that is what is

indicated when the ABR is normal and the audiogram is not - or CAPD?

Hi Sheri It's Lori again. My daughter's ABR was fine borderline to normal but

at times her audiogram would show much bigger dips. The audiologist says this

shows a fluctuating hearing loss and help in showing proof how vital it is

for the school systems to intervene. my daughter is also three.Is your

daughter getting services from your town or city? lori

Lori,

Hi it's Sheri again. I should read all of the posts before I

respond. does not at this time get any public services. We are

tying to do everything privately but I can see an end to that coming very

soon. We are having a problem figuring out what is going on with her. Where

do you live and what kind of services does your daughter get?
