Objective:
This study investigated the effectiveness of remote administration of speech audiometry, an essential tool for diagnosing hearing loss and determining its severity. Utilizing two software tools for remote testing, the research aimed to compare these digital methods with traditional, in-person speech audiometry to evaluate their feasibility and accuracy.
Design:
Participants underwent the Cantonese Hearing in Noise Test (CHINT) under three listening conditions-quiet, noise from the front, and noise from the right side-using three different administration methods: the conventional in-person approach, video conferencing software, and remote access software.
Study Sample:
Fifty-six Cantonese-speaking adults residing in Hong Kong participated in this study.
Results:
Analysis revealed no significant differences in CHINT scores among the three administration methods, indicating the potential for remote administration to yield results comparable to those of conventional methods.
Conclusions:
The findings supported the feasibility of remote speech audiometry using the investigated digital tools. This study paved the way for the wider adoption of tele-audiology practices, particularly in situations where in-person assessments are not possible.
