SPEECH AUDIOMETRY
What is a key component of the audiologic assessment that helps estimate communication function, assists in differential diagnosis, and aids in verification of pure tone audiometry?
100
IMMITTANCE TESTING
What is part of the audiologic battery that is sensitive in detecting middle ear disorders, useful in differentiating cochlear from retrocochlear disorder, is helpful in estimating degree of peripheral hearing sensitivity, and is often used as a cross-check to pure tone audiometry?
100
MICROTIA & ATRESIA
What is a very small deformed pinna & the absence of the pinna or closure of the ear canal?
100
AUDIOGRAM
What is a visual representation of a person's threshold at a given frequency and intensity?
100
AIR CONDUCTION
What provides an assessment of the functional integrity of the outer, middle, and inner ear?
200
SPEECH RECEPTION/RECOGNITION THRESHOLD (SRT)

200
A, B, C, Ad, As
What are the 5 types of different tympanograms depending on the status of the middle ear?
200
OTITIS MEDIA
What is inflammation of the middle ear cavity?
200
Normal hearing for children because they are still acquiring speech and language.
What is 0-15dBHL?
200
BONE CONDUCTION TESTING
What is generates vibrations of the skull and stimulates the cochlea directly?
300
+/- 5 dbHL
What is a pure tone cross check? (the SRT should equal the pure tone average with this amount)
300
IMPEDANCE
What is the extent to which a system resists the flow of energy?
300
EXOSTOSES
What are bony growths in the external ear canal that may be due to excessive swimming in cold water?
300
HEADPHONES/INSERTS, BONE CONDUCTION VIBRATOR, LOUDSPEAKERS
What are 3 output transducers used when testing hearing?
300
MASKING
What is the procedure where noise is placed in 1 er to keep it occupied while the other ear is being tested?
400
WORD RECOGNITION TESTING (WRT) OR SPEECH RECOGNITION SCORE (SRS)
What is a test designed to provide an estimate of supra-threshold ability to recognize speech using monosyllabic words presented at a fixed level?
400
ACOUSTIC REFLEX TESTING
What is a reflex of the stapedial muscle when a sound of sufficient intensity is presented to the ear?
400
CHOLESTEATOMA
What is a cyst-like growth in the middle ear space located in the attic that can be associated with long periods of negative pressure and infection?
400
The 2 reasons for doing a hearing test.
What is to find out the degree and nature of hearing impairment?
400
500Hz-4kHz

500
ROLLOVER
What is a decrease in word recognition ability with an increase in intensity that may be suggestive of retrocochlear site of lesion?
500
ADMITTANCE
What is the ease with which energy will flow through a vibrating system?
