Wideband Acoustic Immittance in Children, in partnership with Seminars in Hearing

Please note: exam questions are subject to change.

1. What is the difference between mucoid and serous otitis media with effusion? Mucoid is a buildup of thick, sticky fluid, while serous is a buildup of thin, watery fluid Mucoid is a buildup of thin, watery fluid, while serous is a buildup of thick, sticky fluid Mucoid is a bacterial infection, while serous is a viral infection Mucoid is a viral infection, while serous is a bacterial infection
2. How does otitis media with effusion affect absorbance patterns? It increases absorbance at all frequencies It decreases absorbance at all frequencies It increases absorbance at low frequencies and decreases it at high frequencies It decreases absorbance at low frequencies and increases it at high frequencies
3. What is the difference between WBA amb and WBA TPP? WBA amb is conducted at ambient pressure, while WBA TPP is conducted at pressurized mode WBA amb is conducted at pressurized mode, while WBA TPP is conducted at ambient pressure WBA amb is used to diagnose hearing loss, while WBA TPP is used to diagnose middle ear disorders WBA amb is used to diagnose middle ear disorders, while WBA TPP is used to diagnose hearing loss
4. How does negative middle ear pressure affect absorbance patterns? It increases absorbance at all frequencies It decreases absorbance at all frequencies It increases absorbance at low frequencies and decreases it at high frequencies It decreases absorbance at low frequencies and increases it at high frequencies
5. How does the presence of pressure equalization tubes affect absorbance patterns? It increases absorbance at all frequencies It decreases absorbance at all frequencies It increases absorbance at low frequencies and decreases it at high frequencies It decreases absorbance at low frequencies and increases it at high frequencies
