[Perception of a merged acoustic image by subjects with normal hearing and patients with different forms of hearing disorders during binaural stimulation].
In subjects with normal hearing and different types of hypoacusis, the proportion of pure tones was measured during continuous sweep of sound frequencies in the left and right ears which resulted in a merged acoustic image in the center of the head. Different predominance types were detected in subjects with normal hearing and patients with symmetric and asymmetric neurosensory hypoacusis. This predominance was of individual character in cases of conductive hypoacusis. These observations can be used for the development of binaural hearing aids. The study also demonstrated a distinct asymmetry in the left and right ear sensitivity to binaural perception of acoustic stimuli whose frequency was continuously varying in the range 100 to 10,000 Hz.
