Abstract

The invention discloses a method for analyzing middle ear acoustic immittance by using an input electrical impedance parameter. The method is used for calculating the middle ear acoustic immittance bymeasuring electrical impedance of a receiver. The method comprises the following steps of applying pressure to the ear canal of a subject in a predetermined ear canal pressure range; sending a soundpressure signal with determined frequency range and amplitude to the ear canal of the subject through the receiver; based on a pre-built receiver detection circuit, measuring the input electrical impedance of the receiver; according to the input electrical impedance of the receiver, and based on a pre-established acoustic immittance calculation model, obtaining the middle ear acoustic immittance under a pressure value; and traversing the ear canal pressure range, repeating the steps, and outputting a pressure value set applied to the ear canal of the subject and a corresponding middle ear acoustic immittance set. According to the method, the electrical impedance parameter of the receiver is utilized to calculate and measure the middle ear acoustic immittance, so that a middle ear acousticimmittance measurement and analysis device no longer depends on a built-in microphone of the ear canal, and is simpler and more convenient.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the field of middle ear acoustic immittance audiometry, in particular to a method and system for analyzing middle ear acoustic impedance by using input electrical impedance parameters. Background technique [0002] Acoustic Immittance Test is a medical testing instrument that tests the transmission state of sound energy in the human ear. It can be used as a means to test the function of the sound conduction path in the middle ear, and can be used to detect the state of the tympanic membrane, the bone conduction of the ossicular chain, and the function of the Eustachian tube. , Auditory implant function debugging, stapedius reflex threshold test, etc. After the sound wave reaches the external auditory canal as a form of force, a certain sound pressure acts on the tympanic membrane, and the middle ear system and the inner ear move accordingly. The measurement is calculated to calculate the acoustic immittance of the middle ear. ...
