23、ational Organization for Standardization) is a worldwide federation of national standards bodies (ISO member bodies). The work of preparing International Standards is normally carried out through ISO technical committees. Each member body interested in a subject for which a technical committee has b
24、een established has the right to be represented on that committee. International organizations, governmental and non-governmental, in liaison with ISO, also take part in the work. ISO collaborates closely with the International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) on all matters of electrotechnical sta
25、ndardization. International Standards are drafted in accordance with the rules given in the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 2. The main task of technical committees is to prepare International Standards. Draft International Standards adopted by the technical committees are circulated to the member bodies f
26、or voting. Publication as an International Standard requires approval by at least 75 % of the member bodies casting a vote. Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this document may be the subject of patent rights. ISO shall not be held responsible for identifying any or a
27、ll such patent rights. ISO 8253-1 was prepared by Technical Committee ISO/TC 43, Acoustics. This second edition cancels and replaces the first edition (ISO 8253-1:1989) and ISO 6189:1983, which have been technically revised. ISO 8253 consists of the following parts, under the general title Acoustics
28、 Audiometric test methods: Part 1: Pure-tone air and bone conduction audiometry Part 2: Sound field audiometry with pure-tone and narrow-band test signals Part 3: Speech audiometry BS EN ISO 8253-1:2010ISO 8253-1:2010(E) vi ISO 2010 All rights reservedIntroduction This International Standard specifi
29、es requirements and procedures for carrying out basic audiometric tests in which pure tones are presented to the test subject using earphones or bone vibrators. Electrophysiological test methods are not included. In order to obtain a reliable measure of hearing ability, many factors are involved. IE
30、C 60645-1 specifies requirements for audiometers. It is essential that audiometric equipment, when in service, be checked and the calibration maintained. This part of ISO 8253 outlines a calibration scheme. To avoid masking of the test signal by ambient noise in the audiometric test room, the levels
31、 of the ambient noise shall not exceed certain values, depending upon the method of signal presentation to the test subject, i.e. by different earphones or by bone vibrator. This part of ISO 8253 gives maximum permissible ambient sound pressure levels which shall not be exceeded when hearing thresho
32、ld levels down to 0 dB have to be measured. It indicates the maximum ambient sound pressure levels which are permissible when other minimum hearing threshold levels require measurement. It sets out procedures for determining hearing threshold levels by pure-tone air conduction and bone conduction au
33、diometry. For screening purposes, only methods for air conduction audiometry are outlined. Audiometry can be performed by using: a) a manual audiometer; b) an automatic recording audiometer; c) computer-controlled audiometric equipment. Methods for threshold audiometry are given for these three type
34、s of signal presentation. For screening purposes, only methods using a manual or a computer-controlled audiometer are set out. The procedures are applicable to the majority of adults and children. Other procedures may yield results equivalent to those derived by the procedures specified in this part
35、 of ISO 8253. For very young, aged or sick people, some modification of the recommended procedures is likely to be required. This may result in a less accurate measurement of hearing.

36、est methods Part 1: Pure-tone air and bone conduction audiometry 1 Scope This part of ISO 8253 specifies procedures and requirements for pure-tone air conduction and bone conduction threshold audiometry. For screening purposes, only pure-tone air conduction audiometric test methods are specified. It
37、 is possible that the procedures are not appropriate for special populations, e.g. very young children. This part of ISO 8253 does not cover audiometric procedures to be carried out at levels above the hearing threshold levels of the subjects. Procedures and requirements for speech audiometry, elect
38、rophysiological audiometry, and where loudspeakers are used as a sound source are not specified. 2 Normative references The following referenced documents are indispensable for the application of this document.
