Hi Doleen

With regards Occupational Audiometry, I can really recommend Occupational Audiometry: Monitoring and Protecting Hearing at Work by Dr Maryanne Maltby.  Its essential reading for me and I refer to it frequently.

Kind regards

Jo

 Hi Doleen,
 
More than happy to provide detail, if you call me offline.
However, I would encourage you to consider attending an audiometry and spirometry course, which will not only provide training, but the knowledge base underpinning these activities.

Hi List,

Can someone guide me to credible information about audiometry? I am particularly interested in finding out if audiometric test can be done without a booth-what are the currrent guidelines in this matter. if so what doe the result mean ethically and professional
 accountability taken into consideration.

Second, i am interested in finding out what should be the acceptable level reference value for  spirometry (FEV1/FVC). how many blows does a client have to do and is it 3 together and how any should be force and slow. Is it acceptable to do all 3 forced blow or should there be forced and slow blows.

Thank you in advance!
