متن کاملAuditing occupational audiometric testing – a pilot study
Concept Safety Systems cc P O Box 8497, Edenglen, 1613 e-mail: [email protected] ABSTRACT Uncontrolled exposure to noise in the occupational setting may cause occupational noise induced hearing loss (NIHL). In South Africa, once an exposed worker has shifted 10 percentage points from his baseline audiometric reading he is eligible for compensation.1 Pure tone air conduction (PTAC) audiometric s...

متن کاملHearing in patients operated unilaterally for otosclerosis. Self-assessment of hearing and audiometric results.
The objective of this study was to examine the outcome of unilateral stapes surgery in one patient group with bilateral hearing loss and one group with unilateral hearing loss. The patients' own estimations of improvement in hearing ability and the occurrence of other ear-related symptoms were examined retrospectively and in a follow-up study. Ninety-five of 123 patients operated for otoscleros...
متن کاملEffects of audiometric threshold step size on proposed ANSI S12.13 outcomes for characterizing hearing conservation program effectiveness.
Audiometric records of 213 employees with low noise exposure were selected from the public domain data base underpinning Draft American National Standards Institute (ANSI) S12.13-1991 Standard Evaluating the Effectiveness of Hearing Conservation Programs. Records were selected from an ANSI S12.13 "control" group demonstrating raw audiometric thresholds in 1-dB steps, presumably resulting from s...
