Question for all audiologists?

[John Richards]

Audiologist only test a child using sentences to find out if there is a 
central auditory processing problem?  Parents do not know to ask so I 
feel that the Audiologist should just do it, especially if the child 
failed the school hearing test and no hearing loss was found.  When a 
child who has a mild hearing loss and wears hearing aids, there is no 
doubt that the HVAC in the classroom and the other noise will effect 
her/him.  The hearing aids amplify the noise before the voice.  When the 
child is tested by the audiologist in the sound field booth and the 
child's SRT % scores are 95%, the audiologist usually says that the child 
hears fine.  That is true in the sound field but how true is it in the 
classroom?  Is there a test that an aduiologist can do either in the 
office or classroom that will show what the child is hearing?  I feel 
that it should not be one words but the sentence response. what do you 
think
