Book Description
Feasibility of on-site audiometer calibration checking with portable apparatus was explored. Three Medical Equipment Repair Centers checked audiometers in their geographic areas for six months. Conclusions were that (1) the on-site audiometer calibration checks were feasible, (2) the apparatus employed was suitable, and (3) the pass-fail criterion selected was satisfactory. General calibration status of audiometers observed seemed to improve during the course of the study. (Author).

Audiometer Attenuator Calibration Method
Author: F. A. Brogan
Publisher:
ISBN:
Category : Audiometry
Languages : en
Pages : 12
Book Description
The implementation of standards for audiometers--together with a general upgrading of those for audiometer calibration--requires calibration checks of the steps of the audiometer hearing-level attenuator. The aim of the study was to determine the feasibility of using transformer and common base preamplifier impedance-matching, in conjunction with laboratory voltmeters or sound-level meters, to detect the very-low-level electrical signals from the audiometer. Additional applications of this device are suggested. (Author).

Occupational Audiometry
Author: Maryanne Maltby
Publisher: Routledge
ISBN: 1136375953
Category : Technology & Engineering
Languages : en
Pages : 244
Book Description
The EU Physical Agents Directive on Noise, which will be implemented into UK law in February 2006, will reduce noise action levels drastically. Under the new regulations, many more industries, which have so far not been associated with high noise levels such as restaurants and call centres, will have to assess the noise levels in their businesses and monitor their employees’ hearing according to HSE guidelines. This practical guide gives occupational health nurses everything they need to know about setting up and managing hearing conservation programmes, as well as how to carry out the audiometric tests. The text fully covers the syllabus of BSA accredited courses for the certificate of competence in Industrial Audiometry and includes practical examples, case studies, sample audiograms and questionnaires for setting up case histories. As the BSA syllabus is based on the HSE’s guidelines, the book will be a useful training manual and up-to-date reference for Health and Safety professionals, Occupational Health professionals, and HSE inspectors. Dr Maryanne Maltby is an Audiological Scientist and Principal Lecturer on the Amplivox courses in Industrial Audiometry. She has previously taught Audiology and related subjects at Manchester University (Course Leader) and at Oxford Brookes University. She is a committee member of the Hearing Aid Council and a member of the British Society of Audiology. She also has wide consultancy experience in workplace training and advice on hearing conservation issues, fitting hearing protection, management of hearing and tinnitus problems at work.
