Clinical Masking During Pure Tone Audiometry

Archives of Otolaryngology - Head and Neck Surgery, 1968
THE PURPOSE of masking the nontest ear during pure-tone audiometry is, of course, to verify the unmasked thresholds. Studebaker1suggested that the nontest ear should be masked during pure-tone air-conduction testing whenever the presentation level at the test ear exceeds the unmasked bone-conduction threshold of the nontest ear by more than 40 db.

Pure Tone Audiometry in Older People

British Journal of Audiology, 1975
Hearing loss measured by pure-tone audiometry is described for the better ear, using the median with 95% confidence limits, in seven sound frequencies in a random sample of older people (215 men and 272 women). Both sexes showed increases in hearing loss in each frequency with increasing age. Hearing loss was greater in women at frequencies of 1000 c.p.

Audiometry in General Practice: Validation of a Pragmatic Pure-tone Audiometry Method

Scandinavian Audiology, 1998
The aim of this study was to validate the results of diagnostic pure-tone audiometry performed in a typical practice setting by comparing with test results obtained in a standardized audiological setting in accordance with the ISO standards. In a single-blinded crossover design, 119 persons were tested (0.25-8 kHz) in both settings. The mean deviations

Quantization Error in Clinical Pure-Tone Audiometry

Scandinavian Audiology, 1992
The current clinical procedure for pure-tone audiometry was analysed for statistical measurement errors. Theoretically, the root-mean-square (RMS) error in a single threshold measurement is always greater than the standard deviation (SD) of measured intra-individual test-retest differences, divided by the square root of two.

Pure Tone Audiometry with the Mentally Retarded

Exceptional Children, 1958
This hearing survey was performed at the Kentucky Training Home, Frankfort, Kentucky. The authors wish to express their appreciation to A. M. Lyon, superintendent, L. F. Boland, medical director, and Ashley Mixson, psychologist, for their valuable assistance.

Individual Masking Levels in Pure Tone Audiometry

Archives of Otolaryngology - Head and Neck Surgery, 1965
THE FUNCTION of the audiologist is twofold (1) to assess the hearing deficit of the individual and (2) to determine, if possible, the locus (or loci) of pathology from which the deficit arises. While bone-conduction audiometry gives a measure of inner ear deficit (or of cochlear reserve), the difference between air-conduction (AC) and bone-conduction (
