Masking: Insuring that the non-test cochlea is not helping out. Making sure that the ear you want to test is the one that is responding.

Reading an Audiogram. Air vs. Bone Conduction A/C  Via TDH-50P headphones Placed on Pinna  Checks the validity of entire ear system  Tests that ipsilateral.
Chapter 5: Normal Hearing. Objectives (1) Define threshold and minimum auditory sensitivity The normal hearing range for humans Define minimum audible.
Pure Tone Audiometry most commonly used test for evaluating auditory sensitivity delivered primarily through air conduction and bone conduction displayed.
Eardrum Sound waves hit a thin skin call the eardrum. The sound waves cause the eardrum to vibrate. Three Tiny Bones As the eardrum vibrates, it causes.

Hearing Loss SARAH WOOLFORD. What is a Hearing Loss? A hearing loss is anything that is not within normal limits (WNL) which is between -10 – 15 dB. A.
Auditory Tests  For the Rinne test, a vibrating tuning fork (typically 512Hz) is placed initially on the mastoid process behind each ear until sound.
MASKING BASIC PRINCIPLES CLINICAL APPROACHES. Masking = Preventing Crossover Given enough intensity any transducer can stimulate the opposite cochlea.

AUDITORY FUNCTION.  Audition results from sound conduction by either air or bones of the skull or both. Sound waves are converted (mechanically in.
AUDIOMETRY An Audiometer is a machine, which is used to determine the hearing loss in an individual.

Sound. Sound Intensity Intensity – the rate of energy flow through a given area.

Inter-aural attenuation FOR AC THRESHOLDS 40 dB usually considered minimum IA for supra-aural headphones. For insert earphones: 60-70 dB FOR BC THRESHOLDS 0 dB usually considered minimum IA bone-conduction vibrators http://www.etymotic.com/pdf/erl-0006-1985.pdf 1

Is cross hearing an issue for right and left ear AC? Spreadsheet

Cross-hearing in bone conduction Only a concern when there is an ABG in the test ear. ABG of 5-10 dB not significant. Cross-hearing for BC suspected when ABGTE > 10 dB. 4
