Speech Audiometry

Pure Tone Audiometry (PTA) is a standard hearing test that measures an individual’s ability to hear different sound frequencies. It helps audiologists determine the type, degree, and configuration of hearing loss, allowing for accurate diagnosis and treatment planning.

How Does PTA Work?

During the test, you will wear headphones and listen to a series of pure tones at different pitches and volumes. You will be asked to respond whenever you hear a sound, even if it is very faint. The results are recorded on an audiogram, which helps identify hearing thresholds for each ear.

Why is PTA Important?

• Detects early signs of hearing loss
• Differentiates between conductive, sensorineural, or mixed hearing loss
• Helps in the selection and fitting of hearing aids
• Assists in monitoring hearing health over time

Who Needs a PTA Test?

• Individuals experiencing difficulty hearing conversations
• Those with frequent ringing in the ears (tinnitus)
• People exposed to loud noises regularly
• Patients with ear infections or a history of hearing problems
