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 کاملRelationship of pure-tone averages to speech reception threshold for male and female speakers.
The availability of a compact disc with a female speaker for clinical use has raised the issue of the equivalence between the female speaker and the previous standard male speaker for assessing the speech reception threshold (SRT). This study evaluated the relationship of two- and three-frequency averages to the SRT for a male speaker on an audio tape and a female speaker on a compact disc in t...
متن کاملValidating self-reporting of hearing-related symptoms against pure-tone audiometry, otoacoustic emission, and speech audiometry.
OBJECTIVE To validate self-reported hearing-related symptoms among personnel exposed to moderately high occupational noise levels at an obstetrics clinic. DESIGN Sensitivity, specificity, and predictive values were calculated for questionnaire items assessing hearing loss, tinnitus, sound sensitivity, poor hearing, difficulty perceiving speech, and sound-induced auditory fatigue. Hearing diso...
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 کاملPure tone audiometry: comparison of general practice and hospital services.
Pure tone audiometry was obtained for both ears of 32 children by a general practitioner using a simple audiometer in his surgery, and by audiometricians in a hospital department on the same day. Comparing the worst hearing threshold at any of the three tested frequencies, the general practitioner did not find any ears to hear more than 10 dB better than the hospital (no false negatives). Howev...
