About Pure Tone Audiometry

Pure Tone Audiometry is a hearing test used to measure the softest sounds a person can hear across a range of frequencies. The results help an audiologist understand hearing sensitivity in each ear and identify the pattern and degree of hearing loss. This information supports further hearing-care recommendations and, when appropriate, hearing aid selection and fitting.

How It Works

01

Preparation

You are seated in a quiet or sound-controlled environment and provided with headphones or suitable earphones.

02

Test Tones

A series of tones at different frequencies and sound levels are presented to each ear.

03

Your Response

You indicate when you hear each sound, usually by pressing a response button or following the audiologist's instructions.

04

Results

Your hearing thresholds are recorded on an audiogram and the audiologist explains what the results indicate.
