Automated Screening for High-Frequency Hearing Loss
OBJECTIVE Hearing loss at high frequencies produces perceptual difficulties and is often an early sign of a more general hearing loss. This study reports the development and validation of two new speech-based hearing screening tests in English that focus on detecting hearing loss at frequencies above 2000 Hz. DESIGN The Internet-delivered, speech-in noise tests used closed target-word sets of...
متن کاملLaboratory methods of assessing hearing loss.
Methods for assessing hearing loss in human loss in human and in animal are reviewed with special reference to the use of brainstem auditory evoked potentials (BSEP). The technique of recording and digital filtering of BSEP is described and compared with the results obtained by use of traditional analog filtering. The use of electrophysiological methods in assessing threshold shifts in studies ...
متن کاملHearing aid benefit in patients with high-frequency hearing loss.
Patients with hearing loss limited to frequencies above 2 kHz are often considered borderline candidates for hearing aids. In this study, we used the Profile of Hearing Aid Benefit to access 134 patients' perceived benefit with a variety of linear hearing aids, some more capable than others at achieving prescribed frequency gain targets. We also sought to explore various audiologic and subject ...
متن کاملHigh Frequency Hearing Loss and Hyperactivity in DUX4 Transgenic Mice.
Facioscapulohumeral muscular dystrophy (FSHD) is caused by mutations leading to ectopic expression of the transcription factor DUX4, and encompasses both muscle-related and non-muscle phenotypes. Mouse models bearing this gene represent valuable tools to investigate which pathologies are due to DUX4 expression, and how DUX4 leads to these pathologies. The iDUX4(2.7) mouse contains an X-linked d...
متن کاملUncti on in Listeners Having High-frequency Sensorineural Hearing Loss
Two-tone mnnasking, psychophysical tuning curves and pure-tone masking patterns were measured at 500 and 1000 Hz in 17 listeners having high-frequency sensorineural hearing loss due to noise exposure. Results were compared to similar data obtained from 20 normal-hearing young adults. In addition, measures of word-recognition ability, were ob 'tained in quiet and in noise for both Rroups. The pr...
