[High-frequency audiometry: hearing thresholds in normal ears].

B Correa Pombo, C Martín Martín

    Summary

    High tone audiometry helps detect early basal cochlear turn conditions like ototoxicity. Establishing standardized high-frequency hearing loss (HL) values is challenging due to device variability and age influences.

    Area of Science:

    • Audiology
    • Ototoxicology

    Context:

    • High tone audiometry is increasingly used for early detection of basal cochlear turn conditions.
    • Standardized hearing loss (HL) decibel scales for high frequencies are lacking, unlike for low frequencies.
    • Variability in testing devices and the significant influence of age complicate establishing universal high-tone hearing norms.

    Purpose:

    • To establish reference values for high tone audiometry in a normal population.
    • To compare findings with existing literature and address the lack of standardized high-frequency HL norms.
    • To provide a basis for laboratories to establish their own age-specific normal values.

    Summary:

    • This study presents experience with high tone audiometry in a normal population.
    • Participants underwent medical history, otoscopy, and diagnostic audiometry to exclude otological pathology.
    • Results were compared with those from other authors to contribute to understanding high-frequency hearing assessment.

    Impact:

    • Provides a reference for interpreting high-frequency hearing loss (HL) data in scientific literature.
    • Highlights the need for further research into standardized high-tone audiometry protocols.
    • Aids laboratories in developing age-specific normal hearing value ranges for high frequencies.
