Types of Hearing Tests

There are different kinds of hearing tests, some suitable for adults while some for adults. Come to us at the Advance Hearing Center to get the right kind of test done.

Auditory Brainstem Response or ABR tests

This is designed for babies or infants who cannot respond to any other kind of hearing test. In rare cases where an adult is unable to communicate what he or she is feeling, the audiologist conducts ABR hearing tests to get a result. The test is usually conducted when babies are sleeping. Adults who take the test must stay relaxed and quiet throughout.

Tympanometry Tests

Quick and painless, this test is conducted to check the condition of the middle ear. It shows if you have scars on your eardrum or if there is fluid congestion in the middle ear. Unlike audiometry, it checks your ear's condition and not how sensitive the ear is to different kinds of sounds. While the test is safe for people of all ages, audiologists do not often subject children to tympanometry. 


 

Otoacoustic Emissions

Audiologists perform this test by positioning a small probe in the ear canal and playing a sound to check the condition of the cochlea and if you are in need of hearing aids. OAE is one of the hearing tests for babies and specially-abled individuals. However, it is important to note that the absence of an OAE does not necessarily indicate a hearing problem. 

High Frequency

Also known as high-frequency audiometry, this test is conducted by audiologists and involves the same procedure as that of normal air conduction audiometry. The tests detect early hearing loss and other potential hearing impairments caused by ototoxicity, noise exposure, and acoustic trauma. People who often have trouble hearing sounds ranging between 2,000 and 8,000 Hz are subjected to this test.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
