[A comparative audiometric study inside and outside of a sound-absorbing chamber]

Results of audiometric studies carry out in fifty patients previously diagnosed as bilateral corthipathy caused by chronic acoustic trauma. The studies were performed with the same audiometer in a silent chamber, and out of it, in a audiology service from a social security institution along 1988. The analysis of results show that both procedures have the same accuracy for the assessment of the audiologic level, and are confidential for the diagnosis and evaluation of secuelae.
