A population of 140 fourth graders participated in a combined audiometric and tympanometric screening project. Pass/fail criteria were established for both subtests. The children were compared between the two tests with the following findings: (1) 52.2% passed both tasks and 5.0% failed both; (2) 36.4% passed the pure-tone task and failed the tympanometric procedure; and (3) 6.4% failed the pure-tone observation and passed the tympanometric study. Of the total population, 42.8% were inconsistent for the norms established for the two tasks. Since the ideal goal of a hearing screening task is to locate children with hearing losses and/or medically related hearing problems, the routine use of tympanometric screening as an integral part of a hearing conservation program is proposed.
140名四年级学生参与了一项听力测定和鼓室图检查相结合的筛查项目。为两个子测试都制定了通过/未通过标准。对孩子们在两项测试中的表现进行比较，结果如下：（1）52.2%的孩子两项任务都通过，5.0%的孩子两项都未通过；（2）36.4%的孩子纯音测试通过但鼓室图检查未通过；（3）6.4%的孩子纯音测试未通过但鼓室图检查通过。在总人群中，42.8%的孩子不符合为两项任务设定的标准。由于听力筛查任务的理想目标是找出有听力损失和/或与医学相关听力问题的孩子，因此建议将鼓室图筛查作为听力保护计划的一个组成部分常规使用。
