Distribution 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 کاملCorrelation between DPOAE I/O functions and pure-tone thresholds.
UNLABELLED Different studies have been carried out in order to correlate audiometric thresholds and distortion product otoacoustic emissions measurements (DPOAE). However, high variability and external interferences make hearing thresholds estimates by means of the DPOAE very little sensitive. The aim of this study was to check the correspondence between the pure tone thresholds and the cochlea...
متن کاملSelf-reported hearing handicap and audiometric measures in older adults.
As part of an epidemiologic study of hearing disorders in older adults, audiometric thresholds (250-20,000 Hz), word recognition performance (Northwestern University Auditory Test No. 6 word lists in quiet and in competing message), and Hearing Handicap Inventory for the Elderly-Screening (HHIE-S) scores were evaluated for 3178 adults ranging in age from 48 to 92 years. Overall, higher HHIE-S s...
متن کاملValidity of diagnostic pure-tone audiometry without a sound-treated environment in older adults.
OBJECTIVE To investigate the validity of diagnostic pure-tone audiometry in a natural environment using a computer-operated audiometer with insert earphones covered by circumaural earcups incorporating real-time monitoring of environmental noise. DESIGN A within-subject repeated measures design was employed to compare air (250 to 8000 Hz) and bone (250 to 4000 Hz) conduction pure-tone thresho...
متن کاملبررسی دقت تخمین آستانه شنوایی بهنجار بوسیله پاسخ‌های برانگیخته قشر شنوایی
Background: Cortical Evoked Response Audiometry (CERA) refers to prediction of behavioral pure-tone thresholds (500-4000 Hz) obtained by recording the N1-P2 complex of auditory long latency responses. CERA is the preferred method for frequency–specific estimation of audiogram in conscious adults and older children. CERA has an increased accuracy of determination of the hearing thresholds of ale...
