Pediatric ABR Assessment With CE-Chirp Stimuli

View Course Details Please note: exam questions are subject to change.


1.  Chirp stimulus was first described by:
  1. Hecox and Galambos in 1974
  2. Shore and Nuttall in 1985
  3. Hall and Jerger in 1992
  4. Kristensen and Elberling in 2012
2.  The spectra of the CE-Chirp is:
  1. Identical to the low frequency click spectra
  2. Identical to the mid frequency click spectra
  3. Identical to the high frequency click spectra
  4. Identical to the click spectra
3.  The four CE-Chirp octave band stimuli were designed by:
  1. Decomposing the click stimulus
  2. Decomposing the CE-Chirp stimulus
  3. Decomposing tone burst stimulus
  4. Decomposing broad band noise stimulus
4.  The CE-Chirp's advantage over a traditional click is:
  1. Longer wave V latency
  2. Shorter wave V latency
  3. Larger wave V amplitude
  4. Smaller wave V amplitude
5.  The advantage of using the CE-Chirp in newborn hearing screening is:
  1. The CE-Chirp is pleasant sounding for newborn infants
  2. The CE-Chirp can be presented at a higher stimulus level
  3. Test results are more valid
  4. Test time is shorter
6.  Cebulla and Shehata-Dieler (2012) reported the median newborn ABR hearing screening test time of:
  1. 12 minutes
  2. 2 minutes
  3. 28 seconds
  4. 2 seconds
7.  Xu and colleagues (2014) reported mean differences between VRA thresholds and ABRs thresholds to chirp stimuli in infants aged 6 to 12 months to be within:
  1. 20 dB
  2. 15 dB
  3. 10 dB
  4. 5 dB
8.  Stuart and Cobb (2014) reported ABRs to air conducted CE-Chirps at a screening level intensity in 100% of newborn infants tested with how many sweeps:
  1. 232
  2. 464
  3. 928
  4. 1856
9.  ABRs evoked by bone-conducted stimuli are indicated when:
  1. There is extra test time available
  2. ABR thresholds to air conducted stimuli are elevated
  3. ABR thresholds to air conducted stimuli are normal
  4. When the infant's parent(s)/caregiver(s) requests
10.  The relationship between air-conducted CE-Chirp Octave Band stimuli and ABR wave V latencies is best described as:
  1. Wave V latency is longer for high frequency CE-Chirp Octave Band stimuli
  2. Wave V latency is longer for mid frequency CE-Chirp Octave Band stimuli
  3. Wave V latency is longer for low frequency CE-Chirp Octave Band stimuli
  4. There is no relationship
