    Susceptance and conductance tympanometry revealed that tympanometric shapes become more complex with higher probe frequencies. Ear canal pressure changes from negative to positive resulted in more intricate patterns in normal subjects.

    Area of Science:

    • Audiology
    • Acoustics
    • Bioengineering

    Background:

    • Tympanometry is a crucial diagnostic tool in audiology.
    • Understanding tympanometric shapes provides insights into middle ear function.
    • Previous models exist for predicting tympanometric patterns.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To investigate the effect of probe frequency on tympanometric shapes.
    • To analyze the influence of pressure change direction on tympanometry.
    • To evaluate the Vanhuyse et al. model for normal ears.

    Main Methods:

    • Recorded susceptance and conductance tympanograms from 10 normal subjects.
    • Utilized a range of probe frequencies from 220 Hz to 910 Hz.
    • Examined tympanometric patterns during negative-to-positive and positive-to-negative ear canal pressure sweeps.

    Main Results:

    • Tympanometric shapes exhibited an orderly progression of complexity with increasing probe frequency.
    • More complex tympanometric shapes were consistently observed when pressure changed from negative to positive.
    • Observed patterns generally aligned with predictions from the Vanhuyse et al. model.

    Conclusions:

    • Probe frequency significantly influences the complexity of tympanometric shapes.
    • The direction of ear canal pressure change impacts tympanometric morphology.
    • The Vanhuyse et al. model serves as a valid initial approximation for normal ear tympanometry.
