Area of Science:

Audiology
Otoacoustic Emissions
Evoked Potentials

Background:

Hearing loss diagnosis utilizes both subjective and objective methods.
Objective audiological diagnostics have been established for decades.
Various techniques exist for assessing auditory function.

Purpose of the Study:

To introduce and describe methodologies of objective audiological diagnostics.
To provide a practical guide through objective audiological diagnostic stages using a case study.
To outline the scientific, technical background, application, and evaluation of objective tests.

Main Methods:

Impedance audiometry
Otoacoustic emissions (OAEs)
Auditory evoked potentials (AEPs)
Electrically evoked potentials (EEPs)

Main Results:

The article presents a comprehensive overview of objective audiological tests.
It demonstrates the application of these tests in a case study, covering all diagnostic stages.
The scientific and technical underpinnings, along with interpretation of findings, are explained.

Conclusions:

Objective audiological diagnostic tools offer a structured pathway for evaluating hearing loss.
Applications span newborn hearing screening, differential diagnosis, auditory neuropathy, and specific conditions like sudden sensorineural hearing loss and vestibular schwannoma.
The utility extends to pediatric patients and individuals with active middle-ear implants and cochlear implants.
