  • Subjective audiometry
    • Involve attention, reaction time, cooperation, etc
  • Pure tone audiometry
    • The patient is played various frequencies through a headphone (air conduction) and a bone oscillator on mastoid bones
    • Various frequencies are played -> patient gives signal when hearing the sound
    • Auditory threshold is determined for each frequency for each modality
  • Speech audiometry
    • Increasingly loud words are played, which the patient should repeat
      • The percentage of syllables, words or sentences heard is plotted on audiogram
    • Also involves speech recognition‎
