Abstract

acoustic reflectometry audiology deafness middle ear effusion otitis media with effusion
This paper reports on associations between acoustic reflectometry and hearing loss in ears with and without middle ear effusion in 137 Dunedin children aged 3 to 16 years. Reflectometry was significantly associated with conductive hearing loss. It was recommended that the techniques be further explored and extended to permit rational decisions about management of middle ear problems.
