Aren't you supposed to perform otoscopy before tympanometry?

[@Keepsaphe]

Thank you for this. Could I just ask, when testing children you test frequencies 500 - 4k, what order do you test is it 1,2,4 then 500?

[@bashaerhaddad4619]

hey there ! an SLP in the making and our doctor told us that there are two methods, one you can start with ( 1Khz, 4kHz, 0.5Hz, 2KHz) or( 0.5 kHz → 2 kHz → 1 kHz → 4 kHz)

Would this test be yoused for kids of the age of 9?

[@kelceyfirth]

Yes that's what mine was like when I was 9

[@modex20]

At that age can they not just raise their hand when they hear something?

[@noah2418]

@@Gymnasticschica10027 yeah, usually the ones that are doing the raising their hand method are used to it, and it's normal for them. That's how it was for me, since it's genetic and been around since birth.
