  2. AUDIOMETRY Audiometry test is painless, a noninvasive hearing test that measures a person’s ability to hear different sound, pitches. Patients who have a tumor in or around the ear may undergo hearing testing to determine whether a hearing loss has occurred or to monitor their hearing before and after surgery. It is also checked whether or not hearing aids or surgery may enhance one’s hearing. Hearing impairment comes with age but can affect anyone. This test is generally the first quantitative hearing test done to assess the nature and degree of hearing the loss in adults and in children over about four years of age to properly plan the most appropriate interventions.

  3. Audiometry Test Procedure The audiometry tests are conducted in an isolated environment. Earphones will be plugged on your head. The audiologists will ask you to sit still and not to talk. The earphones are connected to a machine that will produce tones and different sounds of speech to your ears, one ear at a time. You have to raise your hand when you hear a sound from the earphones. The audiologist may provide you some facilities, you may be asked to push a button or make some other sign that you have recognized a sound.

  4. Audiometry Test Results After the test,audiologist will review the results. Depending on how well you hear sound and tone, they will tell you about preventive measures you should take, such as wearing earplugs around loud noises, or any corrective measures you may need, such as wearing a hearing machine. The audiologist will brief you about your final test results. A report may be sent to your referring physician, who may be a neurosurgeon, otolaryngologist, or primary care physician. They will advise you what is the test results mean for your hearing loss and treatment options.
