Hearing Loss in Adults

Causes and Signs


The impact of hearing loss varies from person to person. It greatly depends on the degree and configuration of hearing loss. However, hearing loss would, at least to certain extent, results in distorted or incomplete communication which leads to greater isolation and withdrawal. In turn the individual's life space and social life becomes restricted. While for those who are still in the workforce, uncorrected hearing loss has a negative impact on overall job effectiveness, opportunity for promotion and perhaps lifelong earning power.

Hearing Assessment

Pure Tone Audiometry (PTA)

PTA is a behavioural test used to establish the hearing threshold, the softest sound that can be perceived in a controlled environment.

Tympanometry

Tympanometry records changes in middle ear immittance with varying air pressure in the ear canal. It is a test used to detect disorders of the middle ear.

Auditory Brainstem Response (ABR)

ABR is generated from auditory nerve, subsequent fibre tracts and nuclei within the auditory brainstem pathways. Sounds are introduced through the earphones to the patients’ ear, and a few electrodes are attached to the patient to record the response.

Auditory Steady State Response (ASSR)

ASSR are brain response elicited by continuous steady-state modulated tonal acoustic stimuli. It is an objective frequency-specific hearing assessment which can be used to obtain detailed hearing sensitivity and auditory status in difficult to test patients.
