contents Temporal resolution in sensorineural hearing loss Giselle Goulart de Oliveira Matos Silvana Frota Salud Adult Hearing Hearing loss Hearing tests Auditory perception Purpose: To evaluate temporal resolution in adults with mild and moderatesensorineural hearing loss using the Gaps in Noise (GIN) test todetermine whether these losses affect the test performance. Methods:Fifty-seven patients between 20 and 59 years of age (30 men and 27women) were evaluated; these patients had a complete medical historytaken and underwent ENT examination, basic audiological evaluation,and auditory screening via the dichotic digits test. The subjects weredivided into three groups: G1 (normal hearing), G2 (mild hearing loss),and G3 (moderate hearing loss). The appropriate statistical analysis wasperformed, and the adopted level of significance was 5%. Results: Asignificant proportion of men was observed in the group with hearingloss. There were no significant differences in test performance betweenthe groups. However, the control group’s performance was worse thanthe normality criteria set for young Brazilian adults. The mean gapdetection threshold for the total sample was 8.2 ms in both ears, and themean percentage of correct responses was 49.7% for the right ear (RE)and 50.6% for the left ear (LE). Conclusion: The temporal resolutionevaluated by the GIN test was not influenced by mild-to-moderate sensorineuralhearing loss either in the gap detection thresholds or in thepercentage of correct responses for both ears. 2013 artículo científico 2317-6431 https://www.redalyc.org/articulo.oa?id=391544053007 en http://www.redalyc.org/revista.oa?id=3915 Audiology - Communication Research application/pdf Academia Brasileira de Audiologia Audiology - Communication Research (Brasil) Num.1 Vol.18
