Reference this material as follows: American Speech-Language-Hearing Association. (). Guidelines for manual pure-tone threshold audiometry. 12 rows · Scope. Pure-tone threshold audiometry is the measurement of an individual's hearing. The third was the Manual frequency audiometry may be used for frequencies. Pure-Tone Threshold Audiometry Guidelines (), of to Hz. Pure-tone threshold audiometry. adopted by ASHA in November ASHA encourages is used for both diagnostic and monitoring purposes.
The audiometry of pure-tone thresholds is based on a series of distinct steps and can be implemented in the form of an automated process. In addition, if a computer is used, the results are automatically recorded and can be transferred to other professionals easily. Procedures are described for manual pure-tone audiometry, using both air-conduction (a-c) and bone-conduction (b-c) testing, with and without masking. The document does not cover high-frequency audiometry ( Hz), screening audiometry, use of short-duration tone bursts, self-recording audiometry or sound-field audiometry. 4. diseases, tympanometry (a test of middle ear function), pure tone air conduction thresholds, pure tone bone conduction thresholds, and/or speech discrimination testing. Sometimes these evaluations were done on all NHANES examinees, and some surveys included hearing evaluations on only a subset of examinees (such as children or adults).
This Standard is a revision of the American National Standard ANSI S Methods for Manual Pure-Tone Threshold Audiometry. This Standard provides a procedure for pure-tone audiometry that will serve the needs of persons conducting threshold measurements in industry, schools, medical settings, and other areas where. Testing should begin at 1, Hz, because this frequency is easily heard by most patients and has the greatest test-retest reliability. 18 A common frequency sequence for pure-tone threshold. The American Speech-Hearing-Language Association (ASHA) Guidelines for Manual Pure-Tone Threshold.
