Q

2001 definition of audiologic rehabilitation and aural rehabilitation

A

a ecological, interactive process that facilitates one’s ability to minimize or prevent the limitations & restrictions that auditory dysfunctions can impose on well-being and communication, including interpersonal, psychosocial, educational, and vocational functioning

23
Q

Inner ear

A

sensorineural mechanism

24
Q

outer and middle ears

A

conductive mechanism

25
Q

Pure-tones are transmitted via loudspeakers

A

air conduction

26
Q

pure-tones are transmitted through bone oscillator placed on the mastoid bone behind the ear or on the forehead

A

bone conduction

27
Q

pure-tone threshold

A

the softest pure tone that a patient can detect 50% of the time

28
Q

pure-tone thresholds are measured in

A

at various frequencies in Hz (indicate pitch)

29
Q

Octave frequencies assessed for air conduction

A

250-8000Hz

30
Q

Octave frequencies assessed for bone conduction

A

250-4000Hz

31
Q

audiogram

A

graph used to document the results of a audiologic evaluation

32
Q

Horizontal axis of audiogram

A

represents frequency

33
Q

vertical axis of audiogram

A

represents hearing level measured in decibels (dB)

34
Q

Masking

A

a procedure used by audiologists to ensure that the non-test ear does not participate

35
Q

VRA stands for

A

Visual Reinforcement audiometry

36
Q

Visual Reinforcement Audiometry

A

testing paradigm for children 6 mo- 2yrs, uses animated toys hidden behind smoked Plexiglass on top of the loudspeakers. C -Children rewarded for head-turn response, regardless of whether child localizes to the correct side or loudspeaker

37
Q

Conditioned oriented response

A

similiar to VRA but requires localization to correct side/loudspeaker for reinforcement (also appropriate for 6mo-2yrs of age)

38
Q

Play audiometry

A

testing paradigm for age 2-5 years, co nditioned to complete a repetitive, motoric task to indicate detection of an auditory stimulus (ex: dropping blocks in bucket)

39
Q

Range in dB HL for Normal hearing

A

-10 to 15 dB HL

40
Q

Ability to understand speech in -10dB to 15DB HL

A

No difficulty understanding faint or distant speech

41
Q

Minimal degree of HL: Range in dB HL

A

16 to 25 dB HL

42
Q

Ability to understand speech in 16 to 25 dB HL

A

May have difficulty hearing faint or distant speech

43
Q

Mild HL range in dB HL

A

26 to 40 dB HL

44
Q

Ability to understand speech in mild HL

A

can “Hear” speech, but misses pieces of words causing misunderstanding

45
Q

Moderate HL range in dB HL

A

41 to 55 dB HL

46
Q

Ability to understand speech in Moderate HL

A

May understand familiar conversational speech at a distance of 3-5 ft

47
Q

Moderately Severe HL range in dB HL

A

56 to 70 dB HL

48
Q

Ability to understand speech in moderately severe

A

May understand only loud speech

49
Q

Range in dB HL in Severe HL

A

71 to 90 dB HL

50
Q

Speech understanding in Severe HL

A

may hear a loud shout 1 foot from the ear

51
Q

Speech understanding in Profound HL

A

Not able to use hearing for communicatio

52
Q

Range in dB HL in Profound HL

A

91 dB HL and greater

53
Q
A
54
Q
A

Modderate to profound Mixed Hearing loss (sensorineural & conductive HL), Ex etiology: noise exposure & perforated ear drum

55
Q
A

Mild conductive hearing loss in both ears. (bone conduction thresholds are normal, but air conduction thresholds indicate HL). Means cochlea is normal, but there is some blockage to sound in the middle or outer ears. Ex etiology: Otitis media (ear infection)
