inner ear in response to external stimuli. It assesses the function of the hair cells in the cochlea.\u00a0<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">How it works: A small probe is placed in the ear canal, and sounds are played. The probe records the emissions produced by the inner ear in response to these sounds, indicating the health of the cochlear hair cells.\u00a0<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">When to use: OAE screening is commonly used in newborn hearing screenings and for quick, reliable assessments of hearing function, especially in children and infants.<\/span><\/p><\/li><\/ul><\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-tab-title elementor-tab-mobile-title\" aria-selected=\"false\" data-tab=\"2\" role=\"tab\" tabindex=\"-1\" aria-controls=\"elementor-tab-content-6892\" aria-expanded=\"false\">Auditory Steady State Responses (ASSR):<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<div id=\"elementor-tab-content-6892\" class=\"elementor-tab-content elementor-clearfix\" data-tab=\"2\" role=\"tabpanel\" aria-labelledby=\"elementor-tab-title-6892\" tabindex=\"0\" hidden=\"hidden\"><ul><li><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">What it is: Auditory Steady State Responses (ASSR) is an objective test that assesses hearing sensitivity by measuring the brain&#8217;s response to modulated auditory stimuli at specific frequencies.\u00a0<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">How it works: Electrodes are placed on the scalp, and the patient is exposed to modulated sounds.
