New Method for Pure-Tone Audiometry Using Electrooculogram: A Proof-of-Concept Study

Abstract: Precise and timely evaluation of an individual’s hearing loss plays an important role in determining appropriate treatment strategies, including medication and aural rehabilitation. However, currently available hearing assessment systems do not satisfy the need for an objective assessment tool with a simple and non-invasive procedure. In this paper, we propose a new method for pure-tone audiometry, which may potentially be used to assess an individual’s hearing ability objectively and quantitatively, without n… Show more

“…PTA can evaluate peripheral hearing (air and bone conduction) while TEOAEs can evaluate cochlear function (hair cell function). 10,11 Based on both PTA mean and TEOAE results, hearing loss was found in 17.5% of patients with vitiligo, HCs, healthy controls. a Mann-Whitney U-test; b statistically significant at P ≤ 0.05.…”

“…Two commonly employed imaging modalities for the current purpose are Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) and Computed Tomography (CT) scans. This discussion aims to delve into the comparative analysis of diagnostic accuracy between MRI and CT scans in the detection of skull base ENT pathologies [20].…”

“…The average air conduction thresholds at 0.5, 1, 2 and 4 kHz were obtained from the result of the auditory threshold. In addition, disease was classified based on the following classes from the result of pure tone audiometry ( 25 ): i) Class 1, pure tone average (PTA) <25 decibels hearing level (dBHL); ii) Class 2, PTA=26-40 dBHL; iii) Class 3, PTA=41-70 dBHL; and iv) Class 4, PTA >70 dBHL.…”
