Tablet-based screening results were compared with gold-standard pure-tone audiometry. Acoustic immittance measurements were also conducted. To pass the tablet-based screening, the children were required to respond to at least two out of three sounds for all the frequencies in each ear. Several hearing screening methods were analysed: exclusively tablet-based (with and without 500 Hz checked) and combined tests (series and parallel). The sensitivity, specificity, positive and negative predictive values and accuracy were calculated.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Results<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>A total of 9.43% of children presented with mild to moderate conductive hearing loss (unilateral or bilateral). Diagnostic values varied among the different hearing screening approaches that were evaluated: sensitivities ranged from 60 to 95%, specificities ranged from 44 to 91%, positive predictive values ranged from 15 to 44%, negative predictive values ranged from 95 to 99%, accuracy values ranged from 49 to 88%, and area under curve values ranged from 0.690 to 0.883. Regarding diagnostic values, the highest results were found for the tablet-based screening method and for the series approach.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Discussion<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>Compared with the results obtained by conventional audiometry and considering the diagnostic values of the different hearing screening approaches, the highest diagnostic values were generally obtained using the automated hearing screening method (including 500 Hz). Thus, this application, which was developed for the tablet computer, was shown to be a valuable hearing screening tool for use with schoolchildren. Therefore, we suggest that this hearing screening protocol has the potential to improve asynchronous tele-audiology service delivery.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>","DOI":"10.1177\/1357633x18800856","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2018,10,1]],"date-time":"2018-10-01T00:54:40Z","timestamp":1538355280000},"page":"140-149","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1177\/sage-journals-update-policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":17,"title":["Tablet-based tele-audiometry: Automated hearing screening for schoolchildren"],"prefix":"10.1177","volume":"26","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-7164-8942","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Alessandra G","family":"Samelli","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"School of Medicine, University of S\u00e3o Paulo (FMUSP), Brazil"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0001-5431-8071","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Camila M","family":"Rabelo","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"School of Medicine, University of S\u00e3o Paulo (FMUSP), Brazil"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Seisse G Gandolfi","family":"Sanches","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"School of Medicine, University of S\u00e3o Paulo (FMUSP), Brazil"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Ana C","family":"Martinho","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"School of Medicine, University of S\u00e3o Paulo (FMUSP), Brazil"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Carla G","family":"Matas","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"School of Medicine, University of S\u00e3o Paulo (FMUSP), Brazil"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"179","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2018,9,30]]},"reference":[{"key":"e_1_3_4_2_2","unstructured":"World Health Organization.
