Abstract: Abstract of dissertation entitled Test-retest Reliability of Distortion Product Otoacoustic Emissions in the High Frequency Range submitted by NG, Hoi-Yee Iris for the degree of Master of Science in Audiology at the University of Hong Kong in May 2002 In the current research study, distortion product otoacoustic emissions (DPOAEs) were measured in 35 young Chinese adults (61 ears) with normal audiometric thresholds using an ILO96 OAE system with the default DP-gram protocols as well as user-defined DP spectrum protocols in the high frequency range. Two series of retest were conducted 20 minutes and an average of 15 days later, and the resolution setting for the DP-gram measurements was varied between 1 to 8 points per octave in each test series. Transient evoked otoacoustic emissions (TEOAEs) were also recorded in each test series for comparison purposes. Test-retest partial correlation and standard error of measurement (SEM) were computed to reflect the test-retest reliability of the OAE amplitudes, noise floor and signal-to-noise ratio. Results suggested that OAE amplitudes in the default frequency range (1 to 6 kHz) between test and retest were highly correlated with an average correlation coefficient of 0.85 and SEM was found to be an average of 2.4 dB, while signal-to-noise ratio and noise floor yielded lower correlation coefficients and higher SEMs. OAE amplitudes in the higher frequency range of 6.5 to 7 kHz were also significantly correlated between test and retest (correlation coefficient ranged from 0.74 to 0.80) with SEM from 2.7 to 3.5 dB. Yet DPOAEs at 8 kHz were present with a positive signal-to-noise ratio in only one-third of ears, were less test-retest correlated, and the amplitude revealed a high SEM of 5 dB. No apparent difference was demonstrated among various resolution settings and between short- and long- term retest. This implies that DPOAEs in the high frequency range (6.5 to 7 kHz) could be a potential clinical tool for monitoring cochlear functioning in cases such as exposure to ototoxic medication or noise. vii DOI: 10.5353/th_b2701474 Subjects: Otoacoustic emissions Hearing - Measurement

Download or read book The Use of Distortion Product Otoacoustic Emissions in Comparison to Pure Tone Hearing Screenings in a Preschool Population written by Elizabeth Schehlein and published by . This book was released on 2013 with total page 57 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Distortion Product Otoacoustic Emissions (DPOAE) are sensitive to both sensorineural and conductive hearing loss and have the potential to be used as an effective screening tool across all populations, including children. DPOAEs offer a quick and straightforward hearing screening technique for the pediatric population that is not influenced by subjective interpretations, that is highly reproducible, and that offers a more precise tool than pure tone audiometry. A comparison of mean test times and pass/fail rates from 198 preschool participants were compared between two DPOAE screening protocols and a pure tone screening protocol. Significantly less time was needed to conduct the DPOAE screenings compared to the pure tone screenings. Similar pass/fail rates for both DPOAE screening protocols in comparison to the pure tone screening protocol were noted. The results of this study support the use of DPOAEs as a time efficient alternative to traditional pure tone screening protocol.
Download or read book Characterizing the 2f1 f2 Distortion product Otoacoustic Emission and Its Generators Measured from 2 to 20 KHz in Humans written by Laura Elizabeth Dreisbach and published by . This book was released on 1999 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The cochlea produces recordable acoustic energy (otoacoustic emissions). These otoacoustic emissions occur spontaneously or can be evoked. Distortion-product otoacoustic emissions (DPOAEs) are produced by the intermodulation between the primary stimulus tones (f2 > f1) and occur at frequencies not present in the evoking acoustic stimuli. The 2f1-f2 DPOAE is well characterized for frequencies less than 8 kHz in humans; however, most basilar membrane measurements in animals have been made at higher frequencies. Thus, DPOAE measurements were extended to the higher frequency range of human hearing. High-frequency DPOAEs were characterized by how the DPOAE level varied with primary frequency separations (f2/f1) and stimulus levels and how the group delay estimate of the DPOAE varied with primary frequency. It was concluded that high-frequency DPOAEs continued the patterns seen for low-frequency DPOAEs, indicating that high-frequency DPOAEs are the result of the same biological process responsible for low-frequency DPOAEs.
