Fowler, Ph.D., Howard C. Jones, M.A., Janet E. Shanks, Ph.D., and Richard H. Wilson, Ph.D. at the VA Medical Center, Long Beach, California. In 1997 the Primer was revised with contributions from Lisa Gibbs, M.S. (Long Beach), Anne Strouse, Ph.D. (Mountain Home), Cheryl Longinotti, Ph.D. and Vallarie Smith Cuttie, M.A. (San Francisco), and Doug Noffsinger, Ph.D. (West Los Angeles). This work represents the 3rd revision of the Primer. As with the previous Primers, the current primer is intended (1) to introduce audiology to clinical and rehabilitative health science students, medical students, interns, residents, medical staff, and allied health professionals, and (2) to serve as a reference for the future audiological needs of these professionals. Contributions to the current primer were made by the following VA Medical Centers: Long Beach, California Janet E. Shanks, Ph.D. (Retired) Mountain Home, Tennessee Faith W. Akin, Ph.D., Earl Johnson, Ph.D., Owen Murnane, Ph.D., Colleen Noe, Ph.D., and Sherri Smith, Ph.D. Nashville, Tennessee Gene Bratt, Ph.D. Richard H.

Because the VA with the rehabilitation of individuals with hearing patient population is predominantly aging males with a impairment, and with research pertaining to the significant history of noise exposure, a large segment auditory mechanism. The field of audiology started of this population can benefit from the diagnostic and/or in military aural rehabilitation centers during the rehabilitative services of an audiologist. last years of World War II. The term “audiology” Traditionally, in the private sector, the audiologist was applied to the field by Raymond Carhart, a has not functioned as the primary care provider for speech pathologist, and by Norton Canfield, an individuals with ear pathology. Rather, most individuals otologist, who combined their specialized areas with hearing disorders are seen by pediatricians, family to focus on the aural rehabilitation of service practitioners, and internists. These patients frequently men with hearing impairment. Following World are referred in turn to otolaryngologists or neurologists War II, audiology centers were established both for further evaluation. The audiologist then receives in Veterans Administration (Affairs) hospitals referrals from these physicians to perform functional and in the civilian sector. As graduate programs tests of hearing to determine site of lesion and extent were established to educate audiologists, the of hearing loss. Within the VA, the pattern of referral scope of practice of audiology was widened is different. In most VA medical centers, patients to include diagnostic services as well as aural with a primary complaint of hearing loss enter health rehabilitative services. In 1965 the American care through the audiologist. Historical information is Speech-Language-Hearing Association (ASHA), obtained and functional tests of hearing are performed; which certifies audiologists on a national basis, site of lesion and extent of hearing loss is subsequently established the master’s degree as the entry level determined. Patients requiring medical intervention are for audiologists. Slowly during the subsequent referred to the appropriate medical specialties; those 35 years two things happened to audiology. demonstrating hearing loss not medically treatable First, audiology was defined legally by each are referred for audiologic rehabilitation including the state enacting licensure laws that were aimed at provision of hearing aids and other assistive listening ensuring quality professional services.

  • Underwater Acoustics: Webinar Series for the International Regulatory Community
    Underwater Acoustics: Webinar Series for the International Regulatory Community Webinar Outline: Marine Animal Sound Production and Reception Thursday, December 3, 2015 at 12:00pm (US East Coast Time) Sound production and reception in teleost fish (M. Clara P. Amorim, Ispa – Instituto Universitário) • Teleost fish are likely the largest vocal vertebrate group. Sounds made by fish can be an important part of marine soundscapes. • Fish possess the most diversified sonic mechanisms among vertebrates, which include the vibration of the swim bladder through intrinsic or extrinsic sonic muscles, as well as the rubbing of bony elements. • Fish sounds are usually pulsed (each sonic muscle contraction corresponds to a sound pulse), short (typically shorter than 1 s) and broadband (with most energy below 1 kHz), although some fish produce tonal sounds. Sounds generated by bony elements are often higher frequency (up to a few kHz). • In contrast with terrestrial vertebrates, fish have no external or middle ear. Fish detect sounds with the inner ear, which comprises three semicircular canals and three otolithic end organs, the utricle, the saccule and the lagena. Fish mostly detect particle motion and hear up to 1 kHz. Some species have evolved accessory auditory structures that serve as pressures transducers and present enhanced hearing sensitivity and increased frequency detection up to several kHz. Fish hearing seems to have evolved independently of sound production and is important to detect the ‘auditory scene’. • Acoustic signals are produced during social interactions or during distress situations as in insects or other vertebrates. Sounds are important in mate attraction, courtship and spawning or to defend a territory and gain access to food.

  • Audiometry Techniques, Circuits, and Systems
    M. Tech. Credit Seminar Report, Electronic Systems Group, EE Dept, IIT Bombay submitted Nov 03 Audiometry techniques, circuits, and systems Vineet P. Aras (Roll No. 03307411) Supervisor: Prof. P. C. Pandey Abstract Audiometry is the technique to identify and quantitatively determine the degree of hearing loss of a person by measuring his hearing sensitivity, so that suitable medical treatment or one of the appropriate hearing aids and assistive devices can be prescribed. In audiological investigations, the hearing sensitivity is tested for pure tones, speech or other sound stimuli. The result, when plotted graphically, is called an audiogram. The electronic instrument used for measuring the hearing threshold level is called an audiometer. Using it, the test tones of different frequencies and levels are generated and presented to the patient and hearing thresholds are determined on the basis of patient s response. The auditory system and its disorders are described. Different audiometric tests, techniques and various audiometers are discussed. 1. Introduction There could be various disorders in the various parts of the ear. Audiological investigations help us to diagnose the nature of deafness and localise the site of disorder. The method by which patient's hearing sensitivity can be determined is termed as audiometry [1]. It helps in assessing the nature, degree, and probable cause of the hearing impairment. In this technique, auditory stimuli with varying intensity levels are presented to the person who responds to these stimuli. The minimum intensity level of these stimuli to which consistent responses are obtained is taken as the threshold of hearing . Depending on this threshold, the patient s hearing sensitivity can be estimated by obtaining an audiogram.

  • Consultation Diagnoses and Procedures Billed Among Recent Graduates Practicing General Otolaryngology – Head & Neck Surger
    Eskander et al. Journal of Otolaryngology - Head and Neck Surgery (2018) 47:47 https://doi.org/10.1186/s40463-018-0293-8 ORIGINALRESEARCHARTICLE Open Access Consultation diagnoses and procedures billed among recent graduates practicing general otolaryngology – head & neck surgery in Ontario, Canada Antoine Eskander1,2,3* , Paolo Campisi4, Ian J. Witterick5 and David D. Pothier6 Abstract Background: An analysis of the scope of practice of recent Otolaryngology – Head and Neck Surgery (OHNS) graduates working as general otolaryngologists has not been previously performed. As Canadian OHNS residency programs implement competency-based training strategies, this data may be used to align residency curricula with the clinical and surgical practice of recent graduates. Methods: Ontario billing data were used to identify the most common diagnostic and procedure codes used by general otolaryngologists issued a billing number between 2006 and 2012. The codes were categorized by OHNS subspecialty. Practitioners with a narrow range of procedure codes or a high rate of complex procedure codes, were deemed subspecialists and therefore excluded. Results: There were 108 recent graduates in a general practice identified. The most common diagnostic codes assigned to consultation billings were categorized as ‘otology’ (42%), ‘general otolaryngology’ (35%), ‘rhinology’ (17%) and ‘head and neck’ (4%). The most common procedure codes were categorized as ‘general otolaryngology’ (45%), ‘otology’ (23%), ‘head and neck’ (13%) and ‘rhinology’ (9%). The top 5 procedures were nasolaryngoscopy, ear microdebridement, myringotomy with insertion of ventilation tube, tonsillectomy, and turbinate reduction. Although otology encompassed a large proportion of procedures billed, tympanoplasty and mastoidectomy were surprisingly uncommon. Conclusion: This is the first study to analyze the nature of the clinical and surgical cases managed by recent OHNS graduates.

Current activities and further needs with regard to cooperation and coordination in addressing anthropogenic underwater noise V. Conclusions ............................................................... 2 I. Introduction 1. The marine environment is subject to a wide array of human-made noise. Many human activities with socioeconomic significance introduce sound into the marine environment either intentionally for a specific purpose (e.g., seismic surveys) or unintentionally as a by-product of their activities (e.g., shipping). In addition, there is a range of natural sound sources from physical and biological origins such as wind, waves, swell patterns, currents, earthquakes, precipitation and ice, as well as the sounds produced by marine animals for communication, orientation, navigation and foraging.

    LARGE SCALE SOUND INSTALLATION DESIGN: PSYCHOACOUSTIC STIMULATION An Interactive Qualifying Project Report submitted to the Faculty of the WORCESTER POLYTECHNIC INSTITUTE in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the Degree of Bachelor of Science by Taylor H. Andrews, CS 2012 Mark E. Hayden, ECE 2012 Date: 16 December 2010 Professor Frederick W. Bianchi, Advisor Abstract The brain performs a vast amount of processing to translate the raw frequency content of incoming acoustic stimuli into the perceptual equivalent. Psychoacoustic processing can result in pitches and beats being “heard” that do not physically exist in the medium. These psychoac- oustic effects were researched and then applied in a large scale sound design. The constructed installations and acoustic stimuli were designed specifically to combat sensory atrophy by exer- cising and reinforcing the listeners’ perceptual skills. i Table of Contents Abstract ............................................................................................................................................ i Table of Contents ............................................................................................................................ ii Table of Figures ............................................................................................................................. iii Table of Tables .............................................................................................................................. iv Chapter 1: Introduction .................................................................................................................
