Types Of Hearing Loss

Conductive hearing loss



What is the problem

Not working parts in the outer ear or middle ear (eardrum and three ossicles) appropriately



Reasons

• Otitis media


• Head injury


• Congenital defects


• Disease such as hardening of the ossicles

The degree of hearing loss

• Slight to moderate hearing loss


• Put your fingers in your ears simulates conductive hearing loss (votes from outside your ear much lower, while your voice sounds higher)

Sensorineural hearing loss



What is the problem

Parts of the inner ear (cochlea and capillary cells) do not work correctly



Reasons

• A lot of loud noises


• Genetics/gene


• Head injury


• Some drugs (cause damage to capillary cells in the inner ear) hearing loss


• Normal aging process (adults only)

The degree of hearing loss

• Slight to severe hearing loss


• Not only low, but sounds may seem chaotic, or chuckle makes it difficult to separate one from the other and is also difficult to interpret the meaning of speech and sounds

Neural hearing loss 

What is the problem

The auditory nerve is not working properly

Reasons

• Genetics/gene


• Head injury


• Malignant tumor

The degree of hearing loss

• Slight to severe hearing loss


• Not only low, but sounds may seem chaotic, or chuckle makes it difficult to separate one from the other and is also difficult to interpret the meaning of speech and sounds

Mixed hearing loss

What is the problem

The combination of conductive hearing loss and sensorineural hearing loss

Reasons

• The combination of reasons and causes nerve sensory connectivity

The degree of hearing loss

• Slight to severe hearing loss

Designed in one ear (SSD)

What is the problem

Sharp sensory Axon heard loss in one ear only. heard in the other ear

Reasons

• Genetics/gene


• Head injury


• Very loud noise in one ear


• Remove the tumor (Pediatric)


• Remove Acoustic Neuroma (surgery)

The degree of hearing loss

• You'll find difficulty hearing in noisy places and may find it difficult to determine the source of the sound.

* Difficult to diagnose difference between hearing loss sensory and neural hearing loss, so sometimes people called this product "s that sensorineural hearing" because it is either sensory or neurological.
