| ABSTRACT |
|
As the number of the people who are hard of hearing has been increased because of lots of noise and being the aged society, the subjects
of a hearing test have been increasing rapidly. In recent year, AMA Pure-Tone Audiometer (AMA-PTA), which enables regular
computers to make a close hearing test, has been developed in the Korea to examine an easy and rapid hearing test for not only average
people but also the early senile patients who are hard of hearing almost 10 percent of the whole population. The purpose of this
study is to estimate a usefulness of AMA Audiometer for normal hearing and hearing loss in clinical field. The procedure of this research
is to perform air and bone conduction for 30 normal people as the subject of this study each once, using GSI 61 Audiometers
and AMA-PTA to estimate the trustworthiness of AMA-PTA. In conclusion, it has been estimated that AMA-PTA which has been
developed in the Korea is a more effective tester that has the reduction of the test time, the solution of a limited space, the advantage
of easy equipment when it is compared with the existing ones. However, it leads to the inaccurate output in high frequency. Especially,
at the bone conduction it was conducted to patients uncomfortably with the incorrect sound. |
