Amaç: Bu araştırmada üniversite kampüsünde yapılan yetişkin işitme taraması sonuçlarının değerlendirilmesi planlandı.
Gereç ve Yöntemler: XXXXXXXX Üniversitesi’nde 611 katılımcıya (%51’i erkek %49’u kadın; yaş ortalaması 23,33±6,68) self-servis işitme tarama cihazı ile işitme taraması yapıldı. Cinsiyete, yaşa ve statüye göre işitme taraması sonuçları analiz edildi.
Bulgular: İşitme taramasına katılan 311’i (%51) erkek 300’ü (%49) kadın toplam 611 katılımcının, 9’u (%13) personel, 532’si (%87) öğrenciydi. Yaş ortalamaları açısından cinsiyetler arasında anlamlı fark elde edilmedi (p>0,05). Hem sağ hem de sol kulak işitme eşikleri açısından cinsiyetler arasında hiçbir frekansta anlamlı fark elde edilmedi (p>0,05). Personel ve öğrenciler arasında her iki kulakta da saf ses ortalaması açısından anlamlı fark saptandı (p<0,05). Taramaya katılan toplam 611 kişinin 8’sinde (%1,3) tek taraflı, 3’ünde (%0,5) bilateral işitme kaybı saptandı.
Sonuç: Çalışmada, üniversite kampüsünde işitme eşikleri yüksek olan bireyler belirlendi ve işitme kaybına farkındalık oluşturuldu. Yetişkin işitme taraması çalışmaları yetişkinlerde kullanılacak standart işitme tarama yöntemlerinin belirlenmesine ve sonuçların değerlendirilmesine yönelik standart kriterlerin oluşturulmasına katkı sağlayabilir.

Evaluation of Hearing Screening Results with Self Service Hearing Screening Device

ABSTRACT
Objective: In this study, it was planned to evaluate the results of adult hearing screening performed on the university campus.
Materials ad Methods: At XXXXXXXXX, 611 participants (51% male, 49% female; average age 23.33 ± 6.68) were screened for hearing with a self-service hearing screening device. Hearing screening results were analyzed according to gender, age and status.
Results: Participating in hearing screening of the 611 participants, 311 (51%) male, 300 (49%) female, 79 (13%) were staff, 532 (87%) were students. No significant difference was found between genders in terms of average age (p> 0.05). No significant difference was found between genders in terms of hearing thresholds of both right and left ears (p> 0.05). A significant difference was found between staff and students in terms of pure tone average in both ears (p <0.05). Unilateral hearing loss was found in 8 (1.3%) and bilateral hearing loss in 3 (0.5%) of the 611 people who participated in the screening.
Conclusion: In the study, individuals with high hearing thresholds on the university campus were identified and awareness of hearing loss was created. Adult hearing screening studies can contribute to the determination of standard hearing screening methods to be used in adults and to establish standard criteria for evaluating the results.
