How Do Otoacoustic Emissions (OAEs) Test Your Hearing? - Everyday Hearing Help

How Do Otoacoustic Emissions (OAEs) Test Your Hearing? Have you ever wondered how hearing health is assessed without causing discomfort or invasive procedures? In this informative video, we'll explain everything you need to know about otoacoustic emissions (OAEs) and how they are used to evaluate hearing function. We'll start by describing what OAEs are and how they are produced naturally by the inner ear in response to sound. You'll learn about the two main types of OAEs—spontaneous and evoked—and how each is used in hearing assessments. We'll also discuss the different categories of evoked emissions, including transient-evoked and distortion product emissions, and how they help detect potential hearing issues. Additionally, we'll walk you through what happens during an OAE test, including how a small probe is used to deliver sounds and listen for echoes from the inner ear. This quick and painless procedure is especially helpful for testing infants and young children who may not be able to participate in traditional hearing tests. OAEs are essential in newborn hearing screenings and ongoing hearing health monitoring, particularly for those exposed to loud noises or certain medications. If you or your loved ones are due for a hearing check, understanding OAE testing can help you make informed decisions about your ear health.
