What is Audiometry?

Audiometry is a diagnostic test used to assess an individual's hearing ability. It involves measuring the person's response to sounds of varying frequencies and intensities. This test helps identify hearing loss, its type, and severity.

Who Needs Audiometry Testing?

Audiometry testing is recommended for individuals experiencing hearing difficulties, including those who have noticed changes in their ability to hear conversations, sounds, or alarms. It is also essential for people working in noisy environments and those at risk of hearing loss due to factors such as aging, genetics, or exposure to loud noises.

What Happens During an Audiometry Test?

During an audiometry test, the individual wears headphones and listens to tones at different frequencies and volumes. They indicate when they hear each sound by pressing a button or raising their hand. The audiologist records responses to create an audiogram, which shows the person's hearing thresholds.

How Can I Prepare for an Audiometry Test?

Before the test, it's essential to inform the audiologist about any medications you are taking, as certain drugs can affect hearing. Avoid exposure to loud noises for at least 24 hours before the test, as this can affect the results. Be prepared to answer questions about your medical history and any symptoms you may be experiencing related to your hearing.
