Comprehensive Hearing Evaluation

A comprehensive hearing evaluation is a non-invasive assessment used to determine the health of your ears and diagnose any hearing issues. This evaluation involves a detailed ear examination and a series of hearing tests that provide valuable insights into your auditory health. At Revere Health, our audiologists use comprehensive hearing evaluations to accurately diagnose conditions and recommend appropriate treatment options.

What to Expect During a Comprehensive Hearing Evaluation
Ear Examination: The audiologist will begin by examining the ear canal and eardrum with an otoscope to check for any blockages, infections, or other physical issues affecting your hearing.
Pure Tone Audiometry: This test measures your ability to hear sounds at different frequencies and volumes. You will wear headphones and indicate when you hear a sound, allowing the audiologist to assess the extent of hearing loss.
Speech Testing: This test evaluates how well you can hear and understand speech in both quiet and noisy environments. It helps the audiologist understand the impact of hearing loss on your communication abilities.
Tympanometry: This test measures how well your eardrum and middle ear are functioning. It can help identify fluid buildup, eardrum issues, or problems with the bones in the middle ear.
Otoacoustic Emissions (OAEs): This test evaluates the function of the hair cells in the inner ear. It helps determine if hearing loss is due to damage in the inner ear.

Benefits of a Comprehensive Hearing Evaluation
Accurate Diagnosis: By using a variety of tests, the audiologist can accurately determine the type and severity of hearing loss or other ear conditions.
Personalized Treatment Plan: Based on the evaluation results, a customized treatment plan can be developed, which may include hearing aids, medical treatments, or other interventions.
Early Detection: Regular hearing evaluations help detect hearing issues early, allowing for timely treatment and preventing further deterioration.
