Validity of diagnostic computer-based air and forehead bone conduction audiometry.
Computer-based audiometry allows for novel applications, including remote testing and automation, that may improve the accessibility and efficiency of hearing assessment in various clinical and occupational health settings. This study describes the validity of computer-based, diagnostic air and forehead bone conduction audiometry when compared wtih conventional industry standard audiometry in a...
متن کاملMasked high-frequency bone-conduction audiometry: test reliability.
The present study examines the reliability of masked high-frequency bone-conduction threshold measurements in 95 normal-hearing subjects. High-frequency pure-tone air-and bone-conduction thresholds were measured with a dedicated laboratory high-frequency auditory evaluation system using matched, modified Koss Pro/4X Plus earphones, and the Pracitronic KH 70/5 bone vibrator. A 400-Hz wide band m...
متن کاملThe Correlation of Results between Pure Tone Audiometry and the Virtual Audiometer: A Simulated Air-Conduction Clinic-based Audiometer
Methods: Analytic, cross-sectional study set in a Philippine tertiary institution. Subjects were recruited from the outpatient department in September 2005 and comprised of cooperative, clinically normal and abnormal hearing individuals. Thirty-two subjects made 64 total ears tested (n=64), giving 0.90 correlation at 0.05 level of significance (α) (p = 0.05) and 99% power. Each subject underwen...
متن کاملImproving the efficiency of speech audiometry: computer-based approach.
Speech audiometric measures were carried out on 981 patients using a computer-based system that permitted a comparison between two modes of signal presentation, manual and automatic. The manual mode, designed to simulate the pace of live-voice testing, allowed the presentation of speech signals at a rate dictated by the patient's response. The automatic mode, designed to simulate tape-player te...
متن کاملValidity of diagnostic pure-tone audiometry without a sound-treated environment in older adults.
OBJECTIVE To investigate the validity of diagnostic pure-tone audiometry in a natural environment using a computer-operated audiometer with insert earphones covered by circumaural earcups incorporating real-time monitoring of environmental noise. DESIGN A within-subject repeated measures design was employed to compare air (250 to 8000 Hz) and bone (250 to 4000 Hz) conduction pure-tone thresho...
