Hearing Loss & Tinnitus Simulation CD
This item is P4393 on the order form.
This audio CD is a new recording of simulation of the sounds heard by people with various degrees of hearing loss and with tinnitus. The CD will be useful to health educators and safety trainers to communicate the nature of some of the difficulties confronting people with hearing loss and tinnitus.
The recording contains word and sentence lists, male and female discourses and music, as heard by people with -
-
Flat 40 dB hearing loss
-
Flat 25 dB hearing loss
-
Normal hearing to 1kHz, then a loss sloping at 30dB/octave
-
Normal hearing to 2 kHz, then a loss sloping at 30dB/octave
-
Normal hearing
The recording also contain some tinnitus sounds simulated at different frequencies and with different band widths and time patterns.
