Pure Tone Audiometry
Pure tone audiometry is the standard behavioral assessment of an individual’s hearing. The results of pure tone audiometry are recorded on a chart or form called an audiogram. In most cases a pure tone audiogram is easy to obtain and provides information about peripheral hearing acuity across the frequencies used in speech. It allows for a quick view of how well, or how poorly, an individual ca...
متن کاملTheory and practice of pure tone audiometry
Pure tone audiometry indicates what hearing thresholds (dB) are required to just be able to perceive a tone at different frequencies (Hz). A pure tone audiology threshold at a specific frequency is the decibel level at which a sound is perceived 50% of the time. The decibel scale used in pure tone audiometry is dB Hearing Level (dB HL). The dB HL intensity scale is based on normal human hearing...
متن کاملComparison between auditory steady-state responses and pure-tone audiometry.
BACKGROUND/AIM A more recent method, the auditory steady-state response (ASSR), has become more and more important test method due to difference that was found in previous investigations between hearing thresholds determined by the ASSR and the pure-tone audiometry (PTA). The aim of this study was to evaluate the reliability of the ASSR in determining the frequency specific hearing thresholds b...
متن کاملDistribution characteristics of normal pure-tone thresholds.
OBJECTIVE This study examined the statistical properties of normal air-conduction thresholds obtained with automated and manual audiometry to test the hypothesis that thresholds are normally distributed and to examine the distributions for evidence of bias in manual testing. DESIGN Four databases were mined for normal thresholds. One contained audiograms obtained with an automated method. The...
متن کاملPure tone pitch perception and low-frequency hearing loss.
Pitch perception for pure tones was investigated in a group of listeners with low-frequency sensorineural hearing loss. Pitch judgments from each listener were compared with results from psycho-acoustic tasks which provide information on the "place" of cochlear response. The pitch measures employed were: (1) binaural pure-tone pitch matching in a listener with unilateral hearing loss, (2) octav...
