Hearing Assessment

For better or worse, we live in a noisy world.

Hearing loss can present many different obstacles to your everyday life and dampen the depth and music you normally experience in a million different sounds.

Whether it’s the song you loved in high school, crunchy leaves underfoot, or your life partner sleeping next to you, these moments count— and we believe that no one should wait until they’re gone before looking for effective treatment. With a hearing assessment, we can create a customized treatment plan for you that helps you and your loved ones get the best out of your experience in life.

Hearing Assessment

Hearing different sounds and being able to hear everything is a blessing. If a person cannot hear anything properly, it is a bad situation and a worse condition for a human. At THC, with a hearing assessment, we create a proper plan and strategies for you and your loved ones to get the best out of your experience in life.

What is a Hearing Assessment?

If you are not having any trouble with hearing, then waves travel into the ear. The hearing tests help to know how you can hear.The vibration moves the waves farther into the ear, where it triggers nerve cells to send sound information to your brain. And this turns into sounds you hear. At THC, you can make it available for the hearing assessments.

Pure tone testing

It is a behavioural test used to measure hearing sensitivity; it is called pure tone testing. It includes the peripheral and central auditory systems. It helps to hear at different pitches or frequencies. And during the test, the patient is asked to respond by raising their hands, pressing a button or saying ‘yes’ when a sound is heard.

Tympanometry

Tympanometry services measure the function and movement of the eardrum and middle ear. It can result in a graph called a tympanogram. It is essential for children who have suspected middle ear problems. Still, it's also sometimes given to adults as part of a routine hearing test to determine if middle ear problems contribute to hearing loss.

Speech Test

At THC, a speech test will be done to know how you can hear the word or how you are pronouncing the heard word. The test for older children or adults is Speech Reception Threshold or SRT.

Otoacoustic Emissions (OAEs)

The OAE tests are even done for the newborn hearing screening program. At THC, the OAE test is used to determine how well your inner ear, or cochlea, works. Also, it helps to assess otoacoustic emissions or OAEs.
