Basic Audiologic Testing

Pure Tone Air & Bone Conduction Testing                       Tympanometry
Speech Reception & Identification                                  Acoustic Reflexes


A basic comprehensive audiologic test may consist of pure tone air and bone conduction testing, speech reception and identification, tympanometry, and acoustic reflex testing. The audiologist will determine which of these tests are necessary.

Basic comprehensive audiologic testing assesses your hearing ability and middle ear status. If hearing loss is present, the testing will provide us with the type and severity of the loss and will help us determine if further testing or referral for medial treatment is appropriate as well as amplification.
