Abstract: Objective To investigate the correlation between extended high-frequency audiometry and distortion product oto acousticemissions (DPOAE) amplitudes. Methods 60 normal hearing people aged 20~40 years were examined with extended high-frequency audiometry and DPOAE. Results Extended high frequency thresholds negatively correlated to DPOAE. Conclusion There is correlation between these two methods, and they can be used for early creening and diagnosis of hearing loss.

Key words: extended high-frequency audiometry, distortion product evoked oto acoustic emissions, correlation
