Hearing loss screening tests for adults.
INTRODUCTION The early detection of hearing loss has been studied widely in newborns due to the emerging technologies for diagnosis and treatment. There are detailed protocols for this goal. Nonetheless, hearing loss screening in adults has become more important lately with the increase of the life expectancy, an expected change in the Mexican population pyramid towards a rectangular shape in t...
متن کاملThe CON-SOT-LOT test for nonorganic hearing loss.
The efficacy of a screening procedure for detecting nonorganic hearing loss using standard audiometric instrumentation was examined. Thirty normal-hearing subjects' responses to continuous and standard and lengthened off-time pulsed tones, using an ascending-descending method, were compared. Subjects were asked to respond to test stimuli in normal-hearing and simulated hearing loss conditions. ...
متن کاملMitochondrial gene mutation screening in hearing loss patients, Hormozgan, Iran
Introduction: Hearing loss is the most frequent sensory disorder occurs in 1/1000 newborns. About 50% of hearing loss cases are due to genetic causes. Mutation in MTRNR1(A1555G), MTTL1(A3243G) and MTTS1(A7445G) are known to be one of the important cause of nonsyndromic Sensorineural hearing loos in some populations. This study aims to demonstrate the frequency of three mitochondrial mutatio...
متن کاملAutomated Screening for High-Frequency Hearing Loss
OBJECTIVE Hearing loss at high frequencies produces perceptual difficulties and is often an early sign of a more general hearing loss. This study reports the development and validation of two new speech-based hearing screening tests in English that focus on detecting hearing loss at frequencies above 2000 Hz. DESIGN The Internet-delivered, speech-in noise tests used closed target-word sets of...
متن کاملScreening for hearing loss in older adults.
The Task Force reviewed research studies on the use of screening tools to identify older adults who might have hearing loss. The recommendation summarizes what it learned about the potential benefits and harms of this screening: There is not enough evidence to determine whether screening helps people who are not aware of hearing loss or who think their hearing is worse but have not chosen to ta...
