HEARING EVALUATION DEVICE WITH NOISE-WEIGHTING CAPABILITIES

摘要

An apparatus and method for evaluation of hearing loss is disclosed. The apparatus and method use evoked Auditory Brainstem Responses (ABR) to determine if the subject is able to hear repeatedly administered click stimuli. In order to optimize evaluation, the present invention uses normative data to accurately weight the ausitory responses, so that evaluation will be possible in different or changing noise conditions.
