The purpose of a hearing screening is to - ✔✔identify the possible presence of hearing loss the pressure refrence for just audible hearing is - ✔✔2 x 10^1 micropascals Important aspects of a decibel - ✔✔-it involves a ratio

  • it utilizes a logarithm
  • it is, therefore, non-linear
  • must be specified in terms of a reference level
  • it is a relative unit of measure The bing test - ✔✔Determines the presence of the occlusion effect In a mixed hearing loss - ✔✔there is impairment in both the conductive and sensorineural mechanisms The conductive mechanism includes - ✔✔the pinna,ear canal, ossicles eustachian it is essential that the examiner have normal hearing when performing the - ✔✔Schwabach test A sensorineural heaing loss could be caused by disorder of the - ✔✔audiotry nerve and inner ear The air conduction pathway includes - ✔✔outer ear, middle ear, inner ear, audiotry nerve The air conduction and bone conduction sound pathways intersect at the - ✔✔cochlea Which of the followingstatement is false air conduction may be the same as BC air conduction may be poorer than BC air conduction may be better than BC - ✔✔air conduction may be better than bone conduction

BC imp No ABG mixed: AC imp BC imp ABG (ac worse) With a tuning fork, you alternate back and forth comparing their bone conduction sensitivity to yours. They can still hear the tone after you cant hear it anymore. What type of hearing loss do you suspect and why - ✔✔First, you are performing a Schwabach test. suspect conductive hearing loss. if they heard it for shorter would be sensorinerual. normal if it is the same time If one has normal hearing and is listening to a low frequency bone conducted tone and then plug their ears, what happens to the tone and why - ✔✔The tone will become louder because of the occlusion effect If one has normal hearing and is listening to a low frequency bone conducted tone.(bone vibrator on forehead) and plugs just their left ear. what happens and why? - ✔✔The tone will become louder on the ear that is plugged bc of the occlusion effect Patient cant hear out of their right ear. You present a low freq tone by bone conduction behind their right ear. They hear the tone and then you ask them to plug their ear. The tone does not become louder. What type of hearing loss would you sustpect and why - ✔✔This would be conductive hearing loss. THis is bc if they had normal hearing the tone would have become louder in the ear that was occluded,so the ear was already occluded because of the conductive problem A patient come to you complaining that they cant hear out of the right ear. You present a low frequency bone conducted tone to their forehead. They hear the tone in their left ear. What type of hearing loss you expect - ✔✔Sensorineural bc the skull is being stimulated and they hear in the better ear but not in the right ear. 4 specific audiology related procedures - ✔✔hearing screenings otoacoustic emmissions sharing knowledge

otoscopy differnece between 2016 and 2007 SLP scope of practice - ✔✔2016 is more broad of the audiology related procedures that an SLP can do. define audiologist - ✔✔an individual who has attained the education, training and license to provide an array of services for the identification, assessment, diagnosis and treatment of those with auditory and or vestibular impairments as well as prevention of such disorders How an SLP might collaborate with audilogists ` - ✔✔- consult with other professionals to meet the needs of individuals with communication and swallowing disorders;

  • serve as case managers, service delivery coordinators, members of collaborative/ patient care conference teams when/how dBhl is used as opposed to dBspl - ✔✔dBhl is used as opposed to dBspl when trying to figure out someone hearing loss severity, and it finds an individuls threshold. Difference between OSHA and NIOSH - ✔✔niosh cannot make/enforce legislation, make more conservative regulations, sound level meter
    • ✔✔
