An artificial patient for pure-tone audiometry [PDF]
The successful treatment of hearing loss depends on the individual practitioner’s experience and skill. So far, there is no standard available to evaluate the practitioner’s testing skills. To assess every practitioner equally, the paper proposes a first

Bayesian Pure-Tone Audiometry Through Active Learning Under Informed Priors [PDF]
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.

Frequency Characteristics of AEPs in Normal Young Adults and Comparison of Their Response Threshold and Pure Tone Audiometry Threshold [PDF]
Objective The tests of three types of auditory evoked potentials (AEPs) were performed on normal young adults, to understand the frequency characteristics of different testing methods and the relationship between response threshold and pure tone ...

The Benefit of Air Conduction Pure-Tone Audiometry as a Screening Method for Hearing Loss over the VAS Score [PDF]
Hearing loss is commonly encountered by general practitioners. We aimed to evaluate the screening benefit of air conduction pure-tone audiometry over visual analogue scale (VAS) scores for hearing loss.

THE INDICATION OF HEARING AID BY PURE TONE AUDIOMETRY
From the relation between the effectiveness of a hearing aid and the threshold curve of air conduction the following results were obtained: 1) In cases of conductive or mixed deafness it was difficult to decide the efficiency of a hearing aid by considering only the threshold curve of air conduction.
