Abstract:
Objective To investigate the clinical meaning and feasibility of transient evoked otoacoustic emission (TEOAE) in China rural primary school children hearing screening.Methods TEOAE was recorded with Madsen Celesta 503 in 317 (634 ears) primary school children,then the results were compared with gold standard test group,including otoscopy, pure tone audiometry and tympanogram.Results In 317 (634 ears) pupils, the presence of TEOAE was 94.64% (600/634); the presence of gold standard was 94.48% (599/634). The consistency rate was (96.69?0.71)%; sensitivity (Sen) was 0.69?0.078;specificity (Spe)=0.98?0.0052, the false positive rate (FPR), that was ?, was 0.31; ? = 0.02; Youden's index J = 0.67?0.078, LR_+=34.5, LR_-=0.32, PV_+=0.71(71%),PV_-=0.98(98.%),AZ=0.8.Conclusion The TEOAE test is simple, quick, harmless, sensitive and objective. It can be used in hearing screening program in rural primary school children.
