Only one client was seen in morning clinic. He was a 10 year old boy that was being tested for Central Auditory Processing Disorder. During otoscopy, some scar tissue was seen on the eardrum. This was as a result of having PE tubes when he was younger. His puretone thresholds were within normal limits. His SRT was 0 dB HL bilaterally and WR was 100% bilaterally. The CAPD testing was not complete by the end of my observation session.

This morning in clinic a woman I have seen since the beginning of the semester came in for her follow-up appointment. She had received bilateral aids and was really enjoying them. She said she didn't wear them all the time, but that when she did, they really helped her.
The second client was referred to the clinic from Disability Services. Otoscopy and tympanometry were normal bilaterally. His hearing was also within normal limits bilaterally. The central auditory processing test battery was also administered, which he performed fine on. The client did not feel he had CAPD, but that this was part of the Disability Services process. He felt he had ADD or ADHD instead.
