Course Description: Cortical auditory evoked potential (CAEP) is one of the available objective tests for threshold estimation or to determine the function of the central auditory nervous system especially at the auditory cortex. Given the anatomical origin of the CAEP is in the brain area, its threshold estimation hypothetically should be more representative of the audiogram in comparison with the other auditory evoked potential tests. Despite this potential benefit, CAEP is not a popular choice of tests among clinicians perhaps because of their unfamiliarity with the test or the lack of knowledge on its benefit in the clinical practice. This talk will share the tips on conducting CAEP in the clinic and to share information on how to utilize CAEP in the clinical practice. At the end of the seminar, the participant will be able to: 1. Implement appropriate parameters to conduct CAEP test. 2. Identify the best techniques to conduct CAEP test. 3. Perform CAEP whenever it is needed in the clinical practice.
