A hearing test provides a measurement of the sensitivity of a person's hearing across the full range of speech. The test will measure the quietest sound that can be heard several points across the speech range \u2013 this hearing test is termed an audiogram.
The audiogram above is empty, no test results have been recorded on it yet. You can see down the left-hand side the numbers starting at -10 and going up to 120 \u2013 these numbers represent the decibel level (volume) at which you can hear a particular sound. The higher the number, the louder the sound.
The OAE (Otoacoustic Emissions) test checks part of the inner ear's response to sound. The test is mostly done on infants and children who may not be able to respond to behavioral hearing tests because of their age.
The ABR screening tells us how the nerve and brainstem pathways for hearing are working. The ABR records activity at the level of the brainstem in response to sounds played through earphones. The OAE screening measures the function of the outer hair cells, but does not measure a response from the auditory nerve.
The results of the hearing test are an indication for the degrees of hearing loss: Normal hearing: -10 to 20 dB. Mild hearing loss: 20 to 40 dB higher than normal. Moderate hearing loss: 40 to 70 dB higher than normal. Severe hearing loss: 70 to 90 dB higher than normal. Profound loss: 90 dB or more.

To perform an OAE test, an OAE screener with a probe is needed. The probe is placed into the patient's ear canal and plays a sound to the ear. The device measures the sound that comes back and the results are displayed on the screen of the OAE hearing screener.
A small earphone, or probe, is placed in your ear. The probe puts sounds into your ear and measures the sounds that come back. You do not need to do or say anything during the test. The person doing the test can see the results on the monitor screen.

OAE Test: What Happens The test takes place in a small sound booth, where the patient is required to be still and quiet throughout testing. It takes approximately 30 minutes for the test, after which the audiologist will share your test results with you.
An adult is classified as having normal hearing ability if their responses indicate they heard noises between 0 and 25 dB across the frequency range. A child is considered to have hearing ability within normal limits if their responses are between 0 to 15 dB across the frequency range.
