[SISI-Test and functional hearing loss (author's transl)].

W Kumpf

    Laryngologie, Rhinologie, Otologie
    |May 1, 1975

    Summary

    The SISI test helps identify non-organic hearing loss. Low SISI scores may indicate functional discrepancies, prompting further audiological investigation beyond retrocochlear site issues.

    Area of Science:

    • Audiology
    • Otoacoustic Emissions

    Context:

    • The study examines the audiological evaluation of individuals seeking compensation for hearing loss.
    • It investigates the utility of the SISI test in identifying non-organic hearing impairments.

    Purpose:

    • To analyze the results of the SISI test in patients with suspected non-organic hearing loss.
    • To determine if SISI test scores can differentiate between genuine and functional hearing impairments.

    Summary:

    • The study applied the SISI test to 16 individuals with suspected non-organic hearing loss.
    • Results indicated that ears with non-organic overlay often presented with high SISI scores (above 70%), while ears with functional discrepancies showed significantly lower scores (often 0%).
    • Low SISI ratings were suggested as a potential indicator of non-organic hearing problems, in addition to retrocochlear pathologies.

    Impact:

    • This research suggests that SISI test results can aid in the detection of non-organic hearing loss.
    • It highlights the importance of considering functional overlay in audiological assessments, particularly when seeking compensation.
