The Automated Auditory Brainstem Response (AABR) is a test method used in newborn hearing screening devices that measures the inner ear and the brain pathway’s response to sounds. When screening for hearing loss, the device will analyze the responses and automatically provide a Pass or Refer result at the end of the test.

Oct 26, 2015 · The learning outcomes for the presentation are to identify three advantages of using a combined otoacoustic emission (OAE) and automated auditory brainstem response (ABR) hearing screening approach, cite a clinical guideline that recommends the use of combined OAE and automated ABR hearing screening, and describe how OAEs and automated ABR techn...

The automated auditory brainstem response (AABR) screener is a dedicated hearing screening device which provides information not only about the outer/middle ear and cochlea but also about the auditory pathway up to the brainstem.

Two-stage AABR screening. In the neonatal departments and neonatal intensive care units of the hospitals on the day 0–4 all the babies (normal and high-risk) are tested with AABR. The acoustic stimulation is a 35 dB CE-Chirp stimulus, with both ears tested.

Objective: To investigate the efficacy of an automated auditory brainstem response (AABR) hearing screening method in very preterm newborns in the neonatal intensive care setting.

Before seting up for the screen, mas-sage the ear for about 10-15 seconds. Pull the pinna (outer ear) up and out to help open the ear canal. Ensure that impedance meets specifications Recommended by the manufacturers. This is very important for completion of a successful screening. Place ear mufins over ears last.

At its core, the Auditory Brainstem Response (ABR) Evaluation is a neurophysiological measure that tests the auditory system’s response to sound, all the way from the ear to the brainstem. This diagnostic tool can assess the function of the auditory pathway, without demanding any subjective response from the test subject.

Objectives: The aim of this study was to investigate the referral rate and when automatic Auditory Brainstem Response (aABR) should be used for newborn hearing screening. Methods: The present study enrolled 2933 healthy full-term infants and 176 infants with perinatal risk factors.
