Why do you always get a low frequency hearing loss250 500 1000HZ with otitis media and not a sensorineural given the higher frequency sounds are in the first part of the cochlea?
Because in otitis media the fluid in middle ear impede the sound tramsmission so cause low frequency conductive type hearing loss but if some inflammatory substance pass the oval window in this case sensorineural type hearing loss can occur.This type hearing loss mostly affect highfrequency region.
Is sensorineural deafness often improved by a hearing aid?
yes
What are the three basic types of hearing loss?
sensorineural, conductive, and mixed
What is the difference conductive deafness and sensorineural deafness?
Conductive Loss - Normal hearing for bone conduction scores ([ & ]), and showing a hearing loss for Air Conduction scores (X &O) Sensorineural Loss- Hearing loss (equally) for both air and bone conduction
Damage to cochlea brain auditory nerve can cause what?
sensorineural hearing loss.
Is presbycusis a gradual loss of sensorineural hearing that occurs as the body ages?
Yes it is!
What is the most common cause of sensorineural deafness?
The great majority of human sensorineural hearing loss is caused by abnormalities in the hair cells of the organ of Corti in the cochlea.
Which type of hearing loss develops when the auditory nerve or hair cells in the inner ear are damaged?
sensorineural hearing loss
Loss of hearing resulting from prolonged exposure to high-intensity sounds?
Sensorineural deafness
What is the scientific name for deafness?
The scientific term for deafness is "hearing loss" or "hearing impairment." It can be categorized based on the severity and type, such as conductive hearing loss, sensorineural hearing loss, or mixed hearing loss.
What are the different types of hearing impairments?
There are three basic types of hearing loss. They are as follows: 1. Conductive 2. Sensorineural 3. Mixed
The process of sound waves travelling to the brain is known as what conduction?
The process of sound waves travelling to the brain is known as sensorineural conduction. Hearing loss may be sensorineural, conductive or a mixture of both.
