Statistical Analysis of Pure Tone Audiometry and Caloric Test in Herpes Zoster Oticus
OBJECTIVES Pure tone audiometry and caloric test in patients with herpes zoster oticus were performed to determine the biologic features of the varicella zoster virus (VZV) and the pathogenesis of vestibulocochlear nerve disease in herpes zoster oticus. STUDY DESIGN A retrospective chart review of 160 patients with herpes zoster oticus was designed in order to determine the classic characteri...

متن کاملPure 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 کاملHerpes zoster oticus following mandibular block.
Although a few cases of facial palsy following mandibular nerve block and dental surgery have been described, it would appear that herpes zoster oticus following dental surgery has not been documented. It is possible that the latent virus may be activated by the mandibular nerve block and dental surgical interventions. Two cases of herpes zoster oticus, both following inferior alveolar nerve bl...
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...
