Audiometry Objective

Article on the topic "Objective Audiometry"

Audiometry is a method for assessing a person’s hearing function, which allows you to determine how well he perceives and distinguishes sounds. In medicine, this technique is used to diagnose various diseases associated with the hearing aid, such as deafness, hearing impairment, etc. One type of audit is an objective audiometer.

An objective audiometer is a device that allows you to obtain accurate information about the reaction of human hearing to sound vibrations. It consists of a generator that creates sound waves of different frequencies and intensities, and a recording device that records the listener's reaction to these sounds.

Using an objective auditor, it is possible to measure both subjective indicators—a person's perception of sound—and objective indicators—the body's responses to sound, such as the frequency of auditory nerve impulses or beta wave activity in the brain. This helps doctors and scientists better understand the mechanisms of the hearing aid and promptly diagnose diseases associated with its impairment.

In medical practice, an objective auditor is used to diagnose hearing disorders, as well as to determine the effectiveness of treatment. In addition, it can be used in psychological research and auditory perception training.

The results of an objective listening test provide an accurate and complete picture of the condition of the patient’s hearing aid, which allows for a more accurate diagnosis and selection of the most effective correction methods. Although objectively recorded data may differ from patients' subjective reports of their sensuality, objective data are more reliable and informative.

One of the main advantages of using an objective audiometer is ease of use and high accuracy of the results obtained. It allows you to get accurate
