hørselsscreening
Hørselsscreening, also known as hearing screening, is a process used to detect hearing loss in individuals, typically in children and adults. It is a non-invasive and quick procedure that involves using specialized equipment to measure the ability to hear sounds at different frequencies and volumes. The most common methods of hearing screening include pure-tone audiometry, which uses tones of varying frequencies and intensities, and speech audiometry, which uses spoken words or phrases.
Hearing screening is typically conducted in a clinical setting by an audiologist or a trained healthcare professional.
Hearing screening is important for several reasons. Early detection of hearing loss can lead to timely intervention
The American Academy of Audiology recommends that all children should have their hearing screened at birth
