Book excerpt: The Acoustic Reflex discusses the acoustic reflex - its magnitude in differential diagnosis, threshold, latency, and other related topics. The book covers different topics such as the neurophysiological basis of the acoustic middle-ear reflex and its characteristics; impedance concepts relating to it; and theories of middle-ear muscle function. The text also encompasses the evaluation of the response time of acoustic-immittance instruments; the contralateral acoustic-reflex threshold and its application for prediction of hearing loss; the magnitude and growth of the acoustic; the ipsilateral acoustic reflex; and the acoustic reflex latency. The monograph is recommended for clinicians and researchers in audiology, deaf education, hearing science, neurology, otolaryngology, physiology, and psychology. The book will also serve as a reference text in a course on impedance.

Book Wideband Reflectance Acoustic Reflex Thresholds in Normal Ears of Younger and Older Adults

Download or read book Wideband Reflectance Acoustic Reflex Thresholds in Normal Ears of Younger and Older Adults written by Helen Salus-Braun and published by . This book was released on 2011-09-09 with total page 230 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Introduction. The purpose of the study was to evaluate wideband reflectance (WBR), in comparison with the traditional acoustic-immittance (AI) method for the measurement of contralateral acoustic reflex thresholds (CARTs) for the broadband noise (BBN) and 1000-Hz tonal activators in younger versus adults, and to examine the any aging effects on the WBR CARTs. Methods. The WBR (Mimosa instrumentation with a 24-chirp probe stimulus and signal averaging of 16 responses) and AI BBN and 1000-Hz CARTs of 10 younger (20-30 years of age) and 10 older adult females (60-70 years of age) with essentially normal-hearing sensitivity were investigated. Results. The WBR frequency-response graphs revealed a positive peak in the low-frequency region and a negative peak at a higher frequency region. Good test-retest reliability was obtained for the WBR CARTs in both groups. The mean 1000-Hz CART was slightly, but significantly higher for the WBR than AI approach in the younger adults, and was essentially the same for both approaches in the older adults. No significant age effect occurred for the WBR CARTs for either activator. The NTD was significantly larger with the WBR than AI approach in both age groups. Discussion. In the frequency-response WBR graphs, the positive peak reflects increased energy reflectance by the middle ear; the negative peak reflects increased energy absorption into the middle ear. The significantly WBR than AI NTD suggests that the WBR rather than AI method should be used for NTD measurement for prediction of hearing sensitivity based on the CARTs, especially in older adults, in whom the traditional AI approach yields reduced NTDs. The significant improvement in the WBR BBN CARTs in comparison with the AI BBN CARTs may result from summation of the energy of the BBN activator and the chirp probe stimulus. Because the WBR approach yielded an expanded NTD that primarily is attributable to the improved WBR BBN CART as compared with the AI BBN CART and to the summation effect, future research needs to re-examine all other parameters of the acoustic reflex related to the BBN stimulus, such as latency, magnitude, and temporal integration and aging effects upon these parameters.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Rapid Audiogram Interpretation: A Clinician's Manual provides a methodical, step-by-step approach for interpreting audiograms. Training and experienced clinicians, as well as non-audiologists in related fields, will benefit from this unique workbook and easy-to-remember interpretation process. The manual includes audiogram examples on a varying level of complexity (basic, intermediate, and advanced), accompanied by official interpretations, matching the specific interpretation method recommended by the authors. This specific interpretation process allows the reader to learn the method and apply it to every future audiogram interpretation, making it an invaluable resource. Otolaryngology trainees (graduate medical students, residents, fellows) are expected to have a working knowledge of audiogram interpretation, however, few, if any, have direct lectures or mentored clinical experiences designed to provide this knowledge within their first few years of training. This resource fills that gap and provides a means for beginners to master interpretation of the audiogram. It also serves as a general review for more experienced clinicians. Key FeaturesIncludes 65 audiogram examples!Uses an 8-step method that can be easily learned and universally applied to future audiogram interpretationsA searchable index by diagnosis for each audiogram aids the learner in seeing disease-specific examplesIncludes a Glossary for quick reference of key termsWritten by otolaryngologists and an audiologist for comprehensive expertise and coverage Rapid Audiogram Interpretation will also be helpful for students and professionals in related fields, such as audiology, speech-language pathology, and deaf/hard of hearing education.
