This research investigates auditory evoked potentials (AEPs) from the brainstem to the cortex in the pediatric population. Our main objectives are to fill in the gaps in our understanding of brainstem AEPs in infants and children in order to improve current clinical assessment tools and protocols. Results from these studies will improve the accuracy of diagnostic assessment of hearing capacity to help inform intervention and treatment decisions in a timely fashion.
This research involves review of provincial early hearing screening, audiology, intervention program data to see how well BC’s early hearing program is meeting international benchmarks, and to see if COVID had any impacts on the timing and availability of services in hopes to mitigate any negative impacts (if any) should the province be faced with other pandemic(s) in the future.
This research investigates auditory brainstem responses (ABRs) in the pediatric population with a focus on developing normative data for stimuli where large-sample studies are limited. For example, one focus is to report on normative results for high-frequency bone-conduction ABR. Another focus is to investigate clinical findings for infants identified with a rare disorder called Auditory Neuropathy Spectrum Disorder (ANSD) to see if current clinical protocols are accurately identifying and differentiating this disorder from other forms of hearing loss.
