title: Computerized audiometry--a facility to prevent hearing damages caused by noise.
abstract: A computerized audiometer has been developed to perform pure-tone manual or fixed-frequency Békésy audiometry. A number of statistical evaluation programs are part of the integrated audiometer. It means that even small but statistically certain changes in hearing thresholds can be revealed at an early stage.
