摘要：
Method and system are disclosed for automated testing of a patients hearing.The automated hearing test allows the patient to quickly and accurately testhis own hearing. The patient is instructed and prompted for inputs and responsesas needed. The patient and/or operator can select one or several tests to be performed,including air and bone conduction testing with masking, speech reception threshold,speech discrimination, tympanogram, acoustic reflex, and otoacoustic emissionstesting. Stenger screening is automatically performed for some patients basedon the difference in pure tone frequency air conduction thresholds. Multiplelanguages are supported. Data obtained from one test may be used for another testor another iteration of the same test to calculate masking levels. The automatichearing test also detects and compensates for ambient noise in the test results.If a contingency occurs, the automated hearing test is configured to page theoperator for assistance.
