Anatomy
Funnels sound into the ear canal
What is Pinna
When we detect the lowest level some can respone to a tone
Pure Tone Audiometry
Do this before putting anything in anyone's ear
What is Otoscopy
This symbol is used to indicate left ear air conduction unmasked
What is X
—additional information in the message that assists with comprehension (grammar, syntax, context, additional acoustic info)
What is Extrinsic redundancy
Responsible for keeping our balance
What is vestibular system
When we use noise and words ,phrase or sentences
This test is use to see if outer hair cells are functioning
OAE
If this is present the type of hearing loss may be conductive
what is air bone gap
Estimated to occur in 2 to 3% of children
Occurrence twice as likely in boys
What is CAPD
organized by frequencies and essential for hearing
What is Cochlea
What is the lowest level some can detect speech
what is Speech detection testing
This test check the auditory pathway
What is Acoustic Reflexes
This is a hearing loss that can be corrected through medical intervention
What is conductive
A physiological test that is used in diagnosing CAPD. It uses electrodes.
what is Auditory Evoked Potentials
This function is to regulate pressure in the middle ear
What is the Eustachian Tube
The frequencies that we test during Pure tone testing
What are octave frequencies
This test is done when babies are sleeping
ABR
this hearing loss is associated with the inner and middle ear
What is Mixed
This test check the detection of timing differences
GAP detection
