The Application of 1000 Hz Probe Tone Tympanometry to Infants / 听力学及言语疾病杂志

ABSTRACT

0.05).Conclusion The peaked tympanogram of 1 000 Hz probe tone tympanometry in infants indicates normal results while flat tympanograms and other irregular shapes are abnormal.The middle ear functions are affected with flat tympanograms.The 1 000 Hz probe tone tympanometry is a valuable diagnostic tool to evaluate the middle ear functions in infants while 226 Hz probe tone tympanometry is considered inappropriate for infants.The 1000Hz tympanometry is more sensitive than ABR Wave Ⅰlatency and DPOAE responses.
