This webinar will review the objective measurements of immittance audiometry for both new and experienced clinicians in order to support best practices.

This presentation will describe best practices in pure-tone audiometry to ensure that results are valid. Further, the audience will learn important interpretation principles including determination of type, magnitude, configuration and symmetry of hearing loss.This course is recommended for students or for professionals returning to clinical work after an absence who would like a review of best practices in pure tone audiometry.

Traditionally, mothers have been the primary contact for professionals providing intervention or habilitative services to families of children with hearing loss. Fathers have been described as the secondary or peripheral parent.
