This third edition is aimed at those who need to refresh their practical skills in paediatric audiology. The first two editions were intended as practical guides and this revised and extended text maintains this theme. The appearance of this new volume is timely in relation to recent advances in the field and the contents should appeal to both experienced practitioners and students.
This book provides a handy reference guide for practitioners who do not have specialist knowledge in pediatric audiology but who, nevertheless, will encounter many cases with mild hearing impairment in childhood and occasional cases with more severe hearing problems. The test procedures used to assess the presence, type, nature and degree of hearing impairment are described with guidance on how to interpret the information provided in audiological reports.
