Conditioned Play Audiometry (CPA) is a specialised hearing test in Singapore tailored for toddlers and preschoolers aged 2-5 years old.
This age range requires a unique approach to hearing assessments as standard methods involving feedback buttons are not suited to their developmental stage. CPA is designed to align with the cognitive abilities of young children, making it a practical and child-friendly method for pediatric hearing screening.
Conditioned Play Audiometry (CPA) is an engaging and interactive hearing test designed for children aged 2-5. It’s an innovative approach where children participate in the hearing assessment by responding to sounds using playful activities. Instead of the traditional feedback button, they use toys such as blocks, balls, or pegs to indicate their hearing responses. This gamified method makes the test more enjoyable for young children and aligns with their developmental stage, ensuring a more accurate and child-friendly hearing evaluation process.
In the Conditioned Play Audiometry (CPA) procedure, the child wears headphones and listens to various sounds. The audiologist guides the child to engage in playful activities, like throwing blocks or balls into a bucket, whenever they hear a sound. These actions serve as responses to the hearing assessment.
Each response is meticulously recorded to evaluate the type and degree of the child’s hearing ability. This information is crucial for determining the appropriate course of action. Following the assessment, the audiologist provides the kid’s parents or guardians with a comprehensive overview of the findings and discusses potential steps or interventions.

I highly recommend anyone who wants to get a good hearing device to head to Listening Lab (LL) as it has the expertise, experience and technology to give you a good hearing fit. I have very good experience with Bloom and its successor, Listening Lab, which has been reorganised with up to date technology. I have been wearing hearing devices for the last 15 plus years, but have wonderful, close to human ears experience for the last 8 years or so when under the care of Bloom/LL.

To start, I have nothing but praise and gratefulness to Ms Vina Ang for attending to the charging device and the buzzing sound on the right hearing aid. She not only diagnosed the problems superbly. She was patiently explaining the causes of the issues. Especially, the buzzing issue which was due to blockage and infection of my right ear. As to the malfunction of the charger, she traced it to the defect of my charging cable. And she replaced my faulty cable with a new one without charge. I really cannot asked for more. Thanks to the after sale service of your company and your audiologist. The services which your people have accorded to me was exemplary.
