How Is My Hearing?

1. What is hearing?

A hearing is related to sounds. There is a range of sounds: those we use to communicate (speak) and those that do not they are part of human communication. The sounds that we use to describe are the speech sounds of our language. If you have difficulty hearing speech sounds, it is You may have a hearing problem.

There are two technical aspects of the sound that you should know. One is the tone (or frequency), and the other is intensity (or volume). In a hearing test, the necessary intensity levels are evaluated to listen to a range of frequencies. The test determines the degree of intensity that sounds must have for you I can hear them. The information is recorded in a graphic called audiogram. The audiology specialist will show you the audiogram when I explain the results of the evaluation auditory.

Different symbols appear on the audiogram: The O represents the hearing levels in the right ear. The X represents the Hearing levels in the left ear. The numbers in part upper of the graph represent the tones or frequencies; usually, it is evaluated from 250 Hz (cycles per second) to 8000 Hz.

The numbers on the left side of the graph represent the hearing evaluation regarding volume or intensity. The higher the number of decibels, the more significant the amount of the sound so you can hear it. The classification general is the following:

If your hearing is between:

0-25 decibels his hearing is normal

25-40 decibels have a light hearing loss

40-70 decibels have a moderate hearing loss

70-90 decibels have a severe hearing loss

Greater than 90 decibels have a profound hearing loss

The designation of a light hearing loss can give the feeling that there is no hearing problem significant. It is important to consider to what extent a hearing loss causes problems in situations of daily communication. Even a light hearing loss can cause difficulties and influence the ability to Communicate easily. It is also essential to have in account that, in an educational environment, children may have problems with hearing levels of 15 or 20 decibels.

The intensity of the speech is shown in the graph of speech sounds of environmental sounds and speech. Compare the graph with your personal audiogram. You can see to what extent you can be raised the sound coming from: a motorcycle, a bus, jet plane
