Accuracy of automated pure-tone audiometry in population-based samples of older adults

open access: yesInternational Journal of Audiology, 2023
Objective Automated pure-tone audiometry is frequently used in teleaudiology and hearing screening. Given the high prevalence of age-related hearing loss, older adults are an important target population.

Extended high-frequency audiometry in research and clinical practice.

open access: yesJournal of the Acoustical Society of America, 2022
Audiometric testing in research and in clinical settings rarely considers frequencies above 8 kHz. However, the sensitivity of young healthy ears extends to 20 kHz, and there is increasing evidence that testing in the extended high-frequency (EHF) region,

Extended high-frequency audiometry: hearing thresholds in adults

open access: yesEuropean Archives of Oto-Rhino-Laryngology, 2022
Purpose This study aimed to determine hearing thresholds in an otologically normal population without occupational noise exposure aged 18 to 64 years using extended high-frequency audiometry (EHFA).

Extended high-frequency audiometry in healthy adults with different age groups

open access: yesJournal of Otolaryngology - Head & Neck Surgery, 2021
Background It was well-documented that extended high-frequency (EHF, above 8 kHz) hearing test could be more sensitive comparing with the conventional measurement on frequency below 8 kHz, regarding the early prediction of auditory damage in certain ...

Diagnostic Accuracy of Smartphone-Based Audiometry for Hearing Loss Detection: Meta-analysis

open access: yesJMIR mHealth and uHealth, 2021
Background Hearing loss is one of the most common disabilities worldwide and affects both individual and public health. Pure tone audiometry (PTA) is the gold standard for hearing assessment, but it is often not available in many settings, given its high

High-Frequency Audiometry for Early Detection of Hearing Loss: A Narrative Review

open access: yesInternational Journal of Environmental Research and Public Health, 2021
The WHO considers hearing loss to be a major global problem. A literature search was conducted to see whether high-frequency audiometry (HFA) could be used for the early detection of hearing loss. A further aim was to see whether any differences exist in

Speech-in-Noise Audiometry in Adults: A Review of the Available Tests for French Speakers

open access: yesAudiology and Neurotology, 2021
Background: Difficulty understanding speech in background noise is the reason of consultation for most people who seek help for their hearing. With the increased use of speech-in-noise (SpIN) testing, audiologists and otologists are expected to evidence ...

Bayesian Pure-Tone Audiometry Through Active Learning Under Informed Priors

open access: yesFrontiers in Digital Health, 2021
Pure-tone audiometry—the process of estimating a person's hearing threshold from “audible” and “inaudible” responses to tones of varying frequency and intensity—is the basis for diagnosing and quantifying hearing loss.

Effect of Korean Red Ginseng on Noise-Induced Hearing Loss

open access: yesTurkish Archives of Otorhinolaryngology, 2021
Objective:Noise-induced hearing loss (NIHL) is one of the most important problems affecting both social and professional life of patients. There is no treatment method considered to be successful on the hearing loss that has become a permanent nature ...

Assessing hearing loss in older adults with a single question and person characteristics; Comparison with pure tone audiometry in the Rotterdam Study

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2020
Introduction Hearing loss (HL) is a frequent problem among the elderly and has been studied in many cohort studies. However, pure tone audiometry—the gold standard—is rather time-consuming and costly for large population-based studies.
