Hearing

58.5K
When we hear a sound, our nervous system is detecting sound waves—pressure waves of mechanical energy traveling through a medium. The frequency of the wave is perceived as pitch, while the amplitude is perceived as loudness.

Assessing Body Temperature - Tympanic membrane

1.3K
Assessing tympanic membrane temperature involves using a tympanic membrane thermometer (TMT). Here is a step-by-step guide:
Step 1: Begin by practicing good hand hygiene to prevent the transmission of microorganisms.
Step 2: Turn on the thermometer and wait until the ready sign appears on the screen to ensure accurate measurement.
Step 3: Slide the probe cover in place to prevent cross-contamination.
Step 4: Instruct the patient to tilt their head to the side for comfort and check for cerumen...

    Summary

    The Home Hearing Test™ provides accurate air-conduction audiograms comparable to clinical tests. This automated hearing test is suitable for telehealth and personal use, increasing access to audiology services.

    Area of Science:

    • Audiology
    • Telehealth
    • Medical Devices

    Background:

    • The Home Hearing Test™ (HHT) is an automated pure-tone threshold test designed for increased accessibility to hearing assessments.
    • It generates an air-conduction audiogram across five key frequencies, supporting home telehealth initiatives.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To evaluate the accuracy of the Home Hearing Test™ (HHT) by comparing its results to traditional in-clinic audiograms.
    • The study was part of a larger audiology telehealth trial within the U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs.

    Main Methods:

    • A prospective, repeated measures design was employed.
    • Twenty-eight participants (mean age 65) with varying hearing statuses were recruited.
    • Home Hearing Test™ (HHT) air-conduction audiograms were compared against in-clinic audiograms using Automated Method for Testing Auditory Sensitivity (AMTAS®) and manual threshold data.

    Main Results:

    • Differences between HHT and clinic audiograms were slightly larger than inter-audiologist or laboratory-based AMTAS® comparisons.
    • These observed differences were not statistically significant, indicating good agreement.

    Conclusions:

    • The Home Hearing Test™ (HHT) demonstrates strong agreement with in-clinic audiometric evaluations.
    • HHT is a viable and effective tool for home telehealth applications and personal hearing monitoring.
