The working group lead for this section is: Angela Morris
Key Contributors: Jane Douglas, Lucien McLellen, Katherine Nolan and Naomi Horner.
This section includes the processes used to monitor and assess hearing thresholds. How they are carried out depends on the child’s age and developmental stage. At each appointment, the assessments will involve routine procedures including ‘history taking’, otoscopy and tympanometry.
