Frequently Asked Questions
What is an audiometric room?
Puretone and Sound Field (free field) audiometric practices are used to assess the hearing/hearing loss of a patient. Once a hearing loss has been identified in a patient, clinical investigations begin.
Why is an audiometry test performed within a workplace environment?
An occupational health specialist would perform a hearing test to the determine the hearing ability of an employee. There are several different types of hearing tests used in audiometry and they can all depend on the employee or the industry they work in.
By law within the UK, a person is protected by the Equality Act 2010 which requires an employer to consider reasonable adjustments within the workplace for deaf or hard of hearing employees. There is government funding available to support employers financially called ‘Access to Work’.
What is audiology?
What does audiometry measure?
An audiometer is used to measure the test subject’s response to different sounds depending on different sound levels, as well as distinguishing speech with or without background noise at different sound levels.
If a person has a sudden loss of hearing ability, a noticeable hearing loss in one or both ears, has a history of ear infections or has recently had surgery to the head, then it is recommended to see a medical professional for a hearing test to check their hearing health is ok.
In audiometry, what are screening and diagnostic tests used for?
A diagnostic test is performed after a failed screening test. It is conducted to find out the extent of the hearing loss. A diagnostic audiometer is used by the audiologist to assess the hearing ability and provides a full evaluation of the patients hearing ability. It will measure how well the patient hears pure tones and understands speech. The test duration usually takes longer than a screening test.
How do audiometry tests work?
A hearing test is usually carried out by a specifically trained medical professional like a doctor or nurse, an audiologist or a qualified occupational health professional. These professionals have an excellent understanding of the biology of the ear, the science of hearing and the knowledge to measure and diagnose a patient’s hearing ability.
