Setting Pure Tone Average Frequencies
For audiograms transferred from Noah, the frequencies used to determine the pure tone average and calculate the hearing loss severity can now be set within Blueprint OMS. A user with the Maintain pure tone average frequencies user privilege can do this by selecting Noah > Pure Tone Average from the main menu.
If those frequencies are not set, Blueprint OMS will default to using 500Hz, 1000Hz, and 2000Hz to calculate the PTA.
Setting other Noah import settings
Since Blueprint OMS has no method of determining the patient's hearing loss type or audiogram shape from the imported audiological data, it assigns a default type and shape to these data sets. To change these defaults, a user with the Maintain Noah import settings user privilege can go to Noah > Noah import settings from the main menu, and set new defaults from the pull-down menus.
Hearing Loss Severity Limits
To determine hearing loss severity, Blueprint OMS uses the following pure-tone average limits. To have these limits adjusted for your system, please submit a support ticket.
Hearing Loss Severity | Minimum | Maximum |
|---|---|---|
Normal | 0 | 24 |
Mild | 25 | 39 |
Moderate | 40 | 54 |
Moderately Severe | 55 | 69 |
Severe | 70 | 89 |
Profound | 90 | 120 |
