Quantization Error in Clinical Pure-Tone Audiometry [PDF]

open access: possibleScandinavian 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, 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

Comparison of distortion product otoacoustic emissions and pure tone audiometry in occupational screening for auditory deficit due to noise exposure.

Journal of Laryngology and Otology, 2015
OBJECTIVE To examine whether distortion product otoacoustic emissions can serve as a replacement for pure tone audiometry in longitudinal screening for occupational noise exposure related auditory deficit.

Pure-tone and speech audiometry in patients with Meniere's disease

Clinical Otolaryngology and Allied Sciences, 2001
The 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, 1981
Guidelines 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.

Pure tone audiometry and otoacoustic emissions for the assessment of hearing loss in diabetic patients

, 2013
Context: Evaluation of hearing loss with diabetic control. Aims: The aim of this study was to profile the audiologic findings of diabetic patients by assessing the degree of hearing loss and the presence/absence of otoacoustic emissions (OAEs); to ...

Screening for hearing loss in the Hong Kong Cantonese-speaking elderly using tablet-based pure-tone and word-in-noise test

International Journal of Audiology, 2019
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, 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.
