Sylvette Wiener-Vacher
Vestibular involvement is present in nearly half of hearing-impaired children, yet often remains underdiagnosed.
In this clinically focused session, Dr. Wiener-Vacher will discuss:
- The adapted paediatric vestibular test battery from 2 months of age
- Comprehensive canal assessment (caloric test, vHIT, rotational chair)
- Otolith function testing (cVEMP, oVEMP)
- Identification of complete bilateral vestibular loss
- Consequences on postural control, motor acquisition and learning
- The role of vestibular status in guiding early rehabilitation and cochlear implantation decisions
This webinar aims to provide practical clinical insights to support early diagnosis and optimized management pathways in paediatric hearing care.

Stavros Hatzopoulos
Pediatric electrophysiology requires more than measurement, it requires understanding neurodevelopment.
This lecture will present the state-of-the-art clinical protocols in pediatric auditory electrophysiology, addressing the diagnostic challenges encountered when evaluating hearing in infants and young children.
Key topics include:
- Clinical decision-making in pediatric auditory neurophysiology
- The role of the developmental clock in interpreting electrophysiological responses
- The diagnostic value of evoked potentials when behavioral responses are unavailable or inconclusive
- Clinical management of newborn hearing screening “refer” outcomes
- Neurological localization using ABR interpeak latencies (I–III and III–V)
- Identification and interpretation of Auditory Neuropathy Spectrum Disorder (ANSD) through the integration of ABR, cochlear microphonics, and otoacoustic emissions
This session will provide clinicians with practical insights for improving diagnostic accuracy in pediatric electrophysiological assessment.

Razionale
La valutazione elettrofisiologica rappresenta uno strumento fondamentale per indagare in modo oggettivo l’integrità delle vie uditive e vestibolari. In questo contesto, i potenziali evocati uditivi del tronco encefalico (ABR) e i potenziali evocati miogenici vestibolari (VEMP) consentono di analizzare in maniera non invasiva le risposte neurali del sistema uditivo e vestibolare, fornendo informazioni preziose per l’inquadramento diagnostico di diverse condizioni cliniche.
La masterclass propone un approfondimento sui principi fisiopatologici, sulle modalità di acquisizione e sull’interpretazione clinica dei potenziali evocati. Partendo dai fondamenti metodologici di ABR e VEMP, verranno illustrate le principali applicazioni diagnostiche, con particolare attenzione alla diagnosi differenziale dei disturbi uditivi e vestibolari.
Attraverso la discussione di casi clinici ed esercitazioni dimostrative, i partecipanti avranno l’opportunità di confrontarsi con esempi reali di registrazione e analisi dei tracciati. Le attività pratiche saranno svolte utilizzando Celesta, il sistema Inventis dedicato alla registrazione dei potenziali evocati, che consentirà di illustrare i principali protocolli di acquisizione e le strategie per ottimizzare la qualità del segnale.
