Audiometry is a diagnostic test used to assess a person’s hearing ability and detect any hearing-related issues or impairments. During an audiometry test, the individual is typically placed in a soundproof room and wears headphones. The test involves listening to a series of tones or sounds at various frequencies and intensity and responding when they hear them. The results are plotted on an audiogram, a graph that shows the person’s hearing thresholds for different frequencies. This test helps audiologists and healthcare professionals to evaluate the extent and nature of hearing loss, if present. Audiometry is a crucial tool in diagnosing and managing hearing disorders, allowing for the customization of hearing aids or other interventions to improve an individual’s hearing and overall quality of life. It is commonly used in both clinical settings and occupational health evaluations to ensure that people can hear and communicate effectively in their daily lives.
