This is taken from the Singhealth article: For the OAE, a small ear probe is placed at the opening of your baby’s ears. The instrument makes clicking sounds and the probe listens to the responses (echoes) from the baby’s ears. For the AABR, three Jelly TabTM sensors are applied to the head. A soft earphone delivering clicking sounds will evoke responses from your baby which will be recorded by the instrument. The staff will inform you of the result after the test. Hope this helps!! For more information on the different types of hearing test, this Singhealth article is quite informative: https://www.singhealth.com.sg/PatientCare/ConditionsAndTreatments/Pages/Hearing-Tests.aspx
