With the ear hearing test report, you can see if there is a problem in the ear?

Pure-tone audiometry results are reflected in pure-tone audiograms.

Normally, we perceive sound signals through two pathways – the air conduction pathway and the bone conduction pathway. The former is very familiar to us, from the outer ear to the middle ear to the inner ear to the auditory center; We may not pay much attention to the latter: from the skull directly to the inner ear to the auditory center.

Correspondingly, there are two types of sound stimulation in pure tone audiometry, air conduction input and bone conduction input. The former is used by us every day, while the latter is rarely used by us. In fact, the similarities and differences between the two threshold curves are the basis for determining the location of hearing loss lesions (see table below).

Knowing where a patient's lesion is located is of great significance for gaining their trust and determining the electroacoustic performance of hearing aids. Therefore, when conditions permit, we should still pay attention to the bone conduction hearing threshold test.

As for whether there is a problem with the ear, there should be professional examination instruments, such as checking whether the ear canal and tympanic membrane are normal with an otoscope, and whether there is a problem with the middle ear and inner ear should be checked by temporal ear CT examination, if it is necessary to further examine, these otolaryngologists who go to the hospital will give professional advice.

No, it can only detect your hearing function, and the specific part of the problem needs to be confirmed by another examination.

The hospital's otolaryngology department or ENT department, as well as the hearing aid fitting center, can do hearing examinations.

Hearing tests include otoacoustic emission examination, 40Hz hearing-related potentials, and multi-frequency homeostatic auditory evoked responses. The clinical diagnosis mainly relies on brainstem evoked potentials, 40Hz hearing-related potentials and multi-frequency steady-state auditory response examinations, and the examination results can objectively reflect the degree of hearing loss.

Hello, you can test bone conduction and air conduction, which can be tested by hospitals or professional fitting centers.

(1) Speech test.

2) Table test.

3) Whisper test.

4) Tuning fork inspection method.

5) Pure tone hearing threshold test includes air conduction and bone conduction test.

6) Electrical response audiometry.

7) Otoacoustic emission test.

8) Acoustic impedance audiometry.

In most cases, a visit to a hearing centre will help you have your ears checked before you have a pure tone audiometry.

1.What are the tests of the hearing test?

Hearing tests are mainly divided into subjective hearing tests and objective hearing tests.

During the test, the physician or audiologist can get a general understanding of the patient's hearing loss through medical history, microscopic examination, preliminary diagnosis, etc., and prescribe reasonable subjective and objective hearing tests to further clarify the hearing loss.

2.What are the common subjective hearing tests?

Subjective hearing test is one of the more important parts of the hearing test.

Subjective hearing tests mainly include pure-tone audiometry and speech audiometry.

3.What are the common objective hearing test methods?

Objective hearing tests are often used to make further diagnoses when subjective hearing test results are insufficient to reflect the lesion or because the patient is unable to actively cooperate with the audiologist to complete the subjective test.

Common objective hearing tests include: conduction impedimentometry, otoacoustic emissions, brainstem evoked potentials (also known as auditory brainstem responses, OHZ hearing-related potentials, multifrequency homeostatic auditory responses, etc.).

Hello, the hearing center checks hearing, mainly to check the three indicators of air conduction, bone conduction, and uncomfortable threshold, to make a basic judgment of what kind of hearing loss your hearing belongs to and the degree of hearing loss. I hope my answer will help you, thank you.

Hello! What are the main tests done in the hearing center?

Hello, the general hearing examination includes air conduction, bone conduction and uncomfortable threshold, and the effect verification of hearing aid hearing threshold, speech test, and real ear analysis will be done during the audition.

1. Otoacoustic emission: OAE, which detects the function of hair cells outside the inner ear, is only screening and cannot be diagnosed.

2. Brainstem potential: ABR, which only represents the hearing sensitivity in the range of pure tone hearing 2 4kHz; There is a difference of about 20db between the response threshold and the behavior threshold; As long as the brainstem responds, the hearing does not exceed 80 decibels.

Hertz correlation potential: 40HzAERP, advantages: in the awake state, the objective threshold is closer to the behavioral threshold; It can reflect the residual hearing condition of different frequencies. Disadvantages: It is greatly affected by the state of sleep; When testing at full frequency, it takes a lot of time.

4. Acoustic conductance test: to detect the function of the middle ear, generally hearing more than 40 decibels will not be able to induce the stapedius muscle reflex.

5. Multi-frequency steady-state: ASSR, advantages: not affected by sleep state; Able to divide the test; It can test 8 frequencies in both ears at the same time, saving time; The judgment of the result is recognized by the computer, which is more objective; With preset programs, objective test results can be directly converted into audiograms.

Disadvantages: In the awake state, the response threshold is higher; When multiple frequencies are tested in both ears at the same time, stability is not good.

In fact, the screening of newborn hearing is affected by many factors, such as some equipment, the baby's mood, the test environment, and the amount of secretions in the newborn's ear.

Guidance: Because the hearing screening equipment is more sensitive, if the baby has the following conditions when receiving the screening, it may not pass the hearing screening, such as the baby's external auditory canal or middle ear discharge, body movement, nasal obstruction, poor breathing, noise in the surrounding environment, etc. Therefore, during the 1-2 month waiting period to receive a hearing diagnosis, the most important thing you need to pay attention to is to avoid letting your baby catch a cold and fever and to avoid choking on breasts, so as to reduce nasal congestion and reduce the chance of middle ear effusion. Most babies who have "failed hearing screening" do not have clear hearing impairment after a diagnostic hearing test, usually because there is absorption or elimination of secretions from the external auditory canal or middle ear.
