This paper discusses the challenges in conducting real time diagnostic Tele-Auditory Brainstem Response (ABR) testing in remote rural locations, based on our experience with testing over 100 infants and young children in a community based hearing screening program. Two methods of tele-ABR, one using satellite connectivity in a mobile tele-van and other using broadband internet connectivity in a non-government organization at the remote location is used in the program. Advantages and disadvantages related to the two methods, challenges with respect to training technicians for telepractice, training village health workers for remote assistance, and other practical and logistic considerations in conducting tele-ABR in remote site is detailed.
