Ear and Hearing, 2018
Objectives: Clinical pure-tone audiometry is conducted using stimuli delivered through supra-aural headphones or insert earphones. The stimuli are calibrated in an acoustic (average ear) coupler.

The results of a test are no better than the competency of the person performing the test. Perfect equipment in the hands of someone untrained, disinterested, or unimaginatively following printed instructions will not produce consistently accurate, worth-while test results.

Quantization Error in Clinical Pure-Tone Audiometry [PDF]
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 in Older People
British Journal of Audiology, 1975Hearing 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, 1998The 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

Pure-tone and speech audiometry in patients with Meniere's disease
Clinical Otolaryngology and Allied Sciences, 2001The aim of this study was to reinvestigate many of the claims in the literature about hearing loss in patients with Menière's disease. We carried this out on a well-defined group of patients under well-controlled circumstances. Thus, we were able to find support for some claims and none for many others.

Determining the Pure Tone Frequencies to be Used in Identification Audiometry
Journal of Speech and Hearing Disorders, 1981Guidelines published by the American Speech-Language-Hearing Association (1975) recommended procedures for identification audiometry that were different from procedures used in Michigan. The difference involved the test frequency used in conjunction with 1000 and 2000 Hz.

Objective: The present study aimed to establish the test-retest reliability and validity of a tablet-based automated pure-tone screening test and a word-in-noise test as hearing screening tools for older Hong Kong Cantonese-speaking adults.

Clinical Masking During Pure Tone Audiometry
Archives of Otolaryngology - Head and Neck Surgery, 1968THE 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.

Comparison of the Hearing Threshold Measured by Pure-Tone Audiometry and by Békésy Sweep Audiometry
Acta Oto-Laryngologica, 1978The hearing thresholds of 115 subjects, workers in a shipyard, were determined both by Békésy sweep audiometry and by conventional individual pure-tone audiometry at fixed audiometric frequencies. The Békésy method gave the lowest values for the hearing thresholds.
