Q

What is the schwa Bach

A

Tuning fork on the table then on patients here let Dr. know when they can hear it but up to the doctors here and they can hear they have conductive hearing loss

Q

What energy moves the fluid

22
Q

What energy does the cochlea pick up the sound nerve to brain

23
Q

What is air conduction

A

Ability to be able to hear any given some through the normal hearing pathway

24
Q

What is bone conduction

A

Bypassing little going directly to enter year to get response of cochlea also to see if they have conductive hearing loss

25
What are the types of hearing loss
Sensorineural conductive non-organic mixed
26
What is when sound molecules pushed together
Compression
27
What happens when the molecules spread apart
Rare fraction
28
What is amplitude
The extent of the vibratory movement of mass from its position of rest that point farthest from the position of rest
29
What is the longitudinal wave
Cycles occur parallel can be same or opposite | Complex
30
What is a sine wave
Smooth wave that repeats cycles pure tones and tones that are only one pitch
31
What is frequency
The number of complete ossicles of a vibrating body per unit of time.
32
What is intensity
The amount of sound energy per unit of area
33
What is the lowest sound you can hear
Fundamental frequency
34
What is harmonics
While number multiples of fundamental frequency
35
What is formance frequency
Concentration of acoustic energy around particular frequency in speech wave
36
What the pressure goes up what happens to the loudness
It goes up
37
What is the first step in seeing a patient
Case history
38
What are s the threshold
Softest level which a patient can hear 50% of the time
39
What is localization
Figuring out where the sound is coming from
40
What are the three types of head phones
Insert ear Supra aural Bone ossilator
41
When you can hear what does the audiologist do
Turn down by 10 dB
42
When you cant hear what does the audiologist do
Turn up 5db
43
What is the air bone gap
The amount by which the air conduction threshold of a patient exceeds the bone conduction thresh hold at any frequency in the same ear
44
What happens when the normal ears and those with sensory neural impairments are covered by earphones or occluded by other devices, there is an increase in the intensity of a sounds delivered by a bone conduction vibrator to the cochlea. Changes in osseotympanic bone conduction.
Occlusion effect
45
What bone is the ossilator
Mastoid
46
How do you find the pure tone average
Results from 500 1000 and 2000 add up and divide by 3
47
What is a pure tone
One single simple tone
48
What is speech
Complex
49
What are the degrees of hearing loss
``` Normal 0-20 Mild 21-40 Moderate 41- 55 Moderately severe 56-70 Severe 71-90 Profound 91 and above ```
50
What is an audiologist
Engaged autonomous practice to promote healthy hearing communication competency and quality of life for persons of all ages
