|---|---|---|---|
| 설명 | 귀가 들리는 정도를 측정하는 검사. 청각검사라고도 한다. 소리나 목소리가 잘 들리는지의 여부 등 청각의 예민한 정도를 측정하는 일이다. 검사에는 청력계나 소리굽쇠 등의 기구에 의해서 얻는 음원, 즉 순음을 사용하며, 사람의 목소리나 시계소리 등도 음원으로 사용된다. 또 음파가 전파되는 매질에 따라 기도 청력검사와 골도 청력검사로 구별되기도 한다. 검사의 내용으로는 청각의 상하음계나 최소 가청문턱값의 검사를 비롯하여, 충분히 들리는 소리를 사용하여 그것이 들리는 상태를 조사하는 문턱값검사(소리의 크기와 상태의 검사, 세기의 판별역검사 등) 외에 음향자극의 반응으로부터 타각적으로 조사하는 방법도 있으며, 이것은 주로 갓난아기나 정신병환자에 대하여 사용된다. 주로 청력계가 사용되고, 청력은 데시벨(dB)로 표시된다. 정상인은 0dB이고, 난청자일수록 그 수가 커지며, 60dB이상은 상당히 난청이고, 80dB 이상이면 귀머거리이다. |

| hearing impaired persons | Persons with any degree of loss of hearing that has an impact on their activities of daily living or that requires special assistance or intervention. (12 Dec 1998) |
|---|---|
| hearing impairment | Hearing loss A reduction in the ability to perceive sound; may range from slight to complete deafness. See: deafness, threshold shift. (05 Mar 2000) |
| hearing level | The measure of the status of hearing as read directly on the hearing loss scale of an audiometer; described in decibels as a deviation from a standard value for zero on the audiometer. (05 Mar 2000) |
| hearing loss, bilateral | Partial hearing loss in both ears. (12 Dec 1998) |
| hearing loss, central | Hearing loss due to central nervous system disease, anywhere in the auditory pathways from the cochlear nucleus of the pons to the auditory cortex. (12 Dec 1998) |
| hearing loss, conductive | Hearing loss due to interference with the acoustic transmission of sound to the cochlea. The interference is in the outer or middle ear. (12 Dec 1998) |
| hearing loss, functional | Hearing loss without a physical basis. (12 Dec 1998) |
| hearing loss, high-frequency | Hearing loss in frequencies above 1000 hertz. (12 Dec 1998) |
| hearing loss, noise-induced | Hearing loss from exposure to noise. The loss is often in the frequency range 4000-6000 hertz. (12 Dec 1998) |
| hearing loss, partial | A condition in which the sense of hearing, although defective, is functional with or without a hearing aid. The hearing level for speech is approximately 40-70 decibels I.s.o. (international organization for standardization) or 30-60 db a.s.a. (american standards association). (12 Dec 1998) |
| hearing loss, sensorineural | Hearing loss resulting from damage to the sensory mechanism internal from the oval and round windows. (12 Dec 1998) |
| Helmholtz theory of hearing | That the basilar membrane of the cochlea acts as a resonating structure, recording low tones from its apical turns and high tones from its basal turns. Synonym: Helmholtz theory of hearing. (05 Mar 2000) |
| sensorineural hearing loss | <neurology> A form of deafness that occurs due to dysfunction of the auditory nerve (cranial nerve VIII). (27 Sep 1997) |
| normal hearing | The ability to perceive sound normally. Synonym: normal hearing. Origin: G. Akousis, hearing (05 Mar 2000) |
| organ of hearing | The content of the cochlea including the portion of the membranous labyrinth containing the spiral organ (cochlear duct) and the perilymphatic channels (scalae) which lie on either side. Synonym: labyrinthus cochlearis, organ of hearing. (05 Mar 2000) |
