Abstract

Systems and methods for conducting hearing tests are provided. The system include real-time ambient noise measurement, an improved bone-conduction hearing test apparatus, a wearable yoke to improve convenience to the patient and test administrator, and an improved ear probe for transmitting test sounds to the ear of the patient and transmitting a hearing test result from the patient’s ear for processing. The systems comprise an insertion probe for insertion into an ear of a patient, at least one transducer for providing test sounds to the ear of the patient through the insertion probe, and at least one transducer for transmitting test results from the ear of the patient. The systems are capable of conducting an audiometric test and at least one of an acoustic immittance test and an otoacoustic emission test, and preferably are capable of conducting an audiometric test, a tympanogram test, an acoustic reflex test, and an otoacoustic emission test using a single ear probe.
