ESF Abacus Hearing Screening

OAEs are sounds generated from the inner ear (cochlea) in response to an external sound. They can be detected with machines as a marker for inner ear health and an easy way to objectively screen for hearing loss.

We try make it fun! Most children are able to complete testing in 5 minutes. Results are indicated as pass/fail. If there is a need for a follow-up, this will be indicated in the report. Reports will be given back to the school for distribution on the same day.

Don't worry! We will work with the school to see if we can come for another visit. In case this cannot be arranged, your child can complete his/her testing at our clinic by a set date. We recommend waiting a minimum of 2 weeks after symptoms have passed before testing.

We recommend to do a follow-up at clinic to understand what is impacting your child's hearing. There are circumstances that may lead to failed results that can be medically reversed or managed. In case your child would like assistance from ENT Centre, we are conveniently located in Central.

A confirmation email from the Eventbrite system will be sent to the registered email account after registration is successfully complete. If you would like a clinic issued receipt for insurance purposes, kindly please select this option during the registration process.
